I Need a Break


Apart from the 'not so nice' person that crumpled my front wing today at Chevington, it has been a good few days birdwise.


I'll just list them: Brambling, Redstart, Goldcrest, Chiffchaff, Yellow-browed Warbler, Redwing, Fieldfare, Mistle Thrush, Blackbird, Song Thrush, Woodcock, SEO, LEO, Siskin, Rock Pipit, Meadow Pipit, Robin, Kingfisher, Chaffinch, Wheatear, Blackcap, Lesser Whitethroat, Sparrwhawk, Merlin, Marsh Harrier, Pomarine Skua, Manx Shearwater, Sooty Shearwater and Velvet Scoter.

Oh, and Pallas's Warbler!






Best I could manage of this mobile little Pallas's Warbler (E Chevington)



Lots of these flying over the reed bed pretending to be moths.



A Fall of Rock Pipits


With the migrants we also get migrant predators. Don't think this was the Hawk Owl though.


Finishing the day with a heart-stopping 'big yellow bunting'!
