Hello,
At first light I was down at Pitsford Reservoir and the first thing I noticed was a Redshank feeding next to the causeway while calling and then I realised how ladened the bushes were with berries espicailly the sloes. Then the bushes started to move with hundreds of Redwings and Fieldfare which I guess had just arrived as they were not bothered by people or a lovely fox. However the light was incredibly poor for pictures. Other birds I noticed on-site included two Great White Egret, a Stonechat and a young female Peregrine which attempted a hunt on Lapwings but then disturbed by the local Rookeries.
Recently this evening I took the dog for a walk around Scaldwell and many hundreds of Thrushes were going over still and a few are going over at night in small numbers. Birds which have been coming to our garden feeders are two Nuthatches, a Great Spotted Woodpecker and two Marsh Tits.
Regards,
Jacob
