THRUSH FLOOD........ 27-09-2007

Hi John, Jef and Hans

 

Just got back from the moor (Oxenhope watchpoint) and confirm your GIGA radar morning for Redwings Hans here in the UK also!!

 

In 4 hours from 0700 - 1100hrs we have had 3825 Redwing and at least 5 Fieldfare initially travelling west and then from c0930 movement swinging to the North West. Birds initiallly quite high and then as the morning progressed flocks dropping lower.... Ideal 8/8 conditions for picking them up.

 

Also supporting cast of Brambling, Hobby, Peregrine and Jay. A TOP MORNING at our watchpoint!

 

Dave Barker and Howard Creber....

Glad there were two of us!!!!!
