Caldene Fields Watchpoint 15-10-2007

15th of October 07  Watch  07.15 – 9.15am

Weather:  A dry start to the morning with 100% heavy low misty cloud clearing to 80% cloud to  the N/W around 08.00 with visibility down to 1 mile.  F1 S/W wind. Temp 10c

 

Comments: A good morning but could have been much better if not for heavy low cloud from 07.15 till 08.00 when calls only were noted, mainly fieldfare. Around 08.00 a small improvement in cloud cover allowed the continental Starling push to be seen which followed the same pattern as yesterday.
