1615 - 1715hr

SSW F2, 8/8,10km, Light Drizzle

 

A big influx of Skylark this afternoon with 26 flushed from the usual rough. On the afternoon of Thursday 11th there were only five in the general area. In view of this it would suggest that todays birds have got to be grounded migrants. Otherwise 36 Meadow Pipit flushed from the Pipit rough together with two Snipe. A flock of Curlew were heard going over but could not be located in the sky.

 

Grounded Birds:

Skylark 26

Meadow Pipit 36

Snipe 2

 

Moving Birds:

Curlew flock heard but not seen.
