27/10/2026 06:50 to 10:00

Much better weather today with largely clear skies but still with a strong SW wind. 

Plenty of thrushes again with over 250 Redwing and 17 Fieldfare and many feeding in the bushes at Black Harry Gate for the first time. At least 3 Brambling and 5 Redpoll in the same area and for the first time this winter a decent number of Starling leaving the roost, I estimated 1900 but it could have been more.
Redwing
The lagoons were much the same as previous days with 6 Pintail, 6 Gadwall, 48 Shoveler and 150 Teal.

Lapwing numbers were up to 35 and there were a few more Lesser Black-backed Gulls than recent days (27) and with them an adult Yellow-legged Gull and 3rd winter Herring Gull.
