Birds overhead today, unlike yesterday, moved in a westerly direction and featured fewer finches and more thrushes. There were 55 Chaffinches, 160 Goldfinches, 21 Redpolls, seven Siskins, nine Alba Wagtails, two Grey Wagtails, 38 Song Thrushes, three Redwings, seven Mistle Thrushes, three Ring Ouzels and 3780 Starlings.
Also in area was a Short-eared Owl, 58 Swallows and 34 House Martins, and moving upchannel were two Mute Swans (big rarity here).
