Oxenhope Watchpoint 08-10-2007

Hey up Dave,
 
Here is my report for today.
 
Weatherwise, a very uninspiring morning which reflected in the number of birds on the move. Fogged-off first thing with accompanying drizzle - nowt moving birdwise apart from odd Mipits. Returned to watchpoint at 10.00 am when the fog lifted and this report covers one hour - 10.00 am to 11.00 am.Cloud cover remained - altostratus in the main. Wind SE.
 
Meadow Pipit - 67 >S
Alba Wags 16 > S
Chaffinch - 5 > S
Goldfinch - 5 > S
Redpoll - 2 > NW
Reed Bunting - 3 > SE
Golden Plover - 1 > NW
 
Other`s
Greenfinch - 23 blogging around Jacks.
Kestrel - 1
Mistle Thrush - 2 around Jacks.
 
Notably - no evidence today of moving Thrushes, Woodpigeons or Jackdaws, albeit only one hour of coverage.  
 
Cheers...........Howard
