A really warm day for September. With a walk from Sparrows Nest round the Oval and North Dene's provided some good views of WHINCHAT. There was at least 4 birds flitting about and would not be surprised if there was not double this amount. I also had some good views on NORTHEREN WHEATEAR of which there was one on the Deane's and 5 at the nets. PIED WAGTAIL at the caravans with a really good adult MED GULL. Several MAGPIES and a single JAY. 7 BLACKBIRDS in Sparrows Nest which I assume have flown in. MEADOW PIPITS as well some defiantly flying south. I also had a single SKYLARK and a bathing group of TURNSTON. To see this click the link that follows. http://youtu.be/W_wWmLrpQv8
Have you ever seen these before, I came across a flock of 19 in Holker Hall, Cumbria. They are accordingly EAST INDIAN BLACK DUCKS of course bred this way from America in or around 1830's.
