Pathways and Leathes Ham.

Overcast and slightly foggy. Some chill in the air and supposedly getting colder again.

 

Pathways:   Best bird here today was a fly over GREEN WOODPECKER. There is an increase in the BLACKBIRD population which was evident there today. But overall there was not anything to go wild about.

Leathe's Ham:  On arrival a CHIFFCHAFF was flitting in and around the pussy willow While watching it I caught sight of a single TREECREEPER which was flitting through the trees. It was also a surprise to see a COMMON BUZZARD flying over and being mobbed by gulls. The usual birding here was led into joy with PINTAIL and TUFTED DUCK, COOT, MALLARD.
