Results of this morning's vizmig watch at Odsal Stadium just to see what goes past "any old where" (we stood on the scrubland between the stadium and golf course);
0715-0915hrs Cool overcast morning with F1/2 NE'ly.
Small numbers of Mistle Thrush either hanging around or passing over, plus a few Song Thrush. 88 Redwing almost all going either N or NE. A total of 60 of these passed through between 0800 and 0815 including two flocks of 20 and 24. A few small Finch flocks including two of Goldfinch with 11 in each, one going E and the other SE. Loads of Blackbirds around in the bushes, with possible double figures in a berry laden Hawthorn by the car park.
Best sighting was 3 Snipe heading NE having come up the line of Cleckheaton Rd.
All in all, a bit more interesting that we expected for a site like this. Started raining at 9.15am so gave up.
