Sunday December 14

Oh dear, I'm afraid the birding remains stuck in a Morton Bagot-shaped rut, or possibly a trench.

Dave and I completed a pretty quick circuit, mainly because there wasn't much to look at. Our highlights were the Peregrine (for the third weekend running) circling near Bannams Wood, and 180 Linnets with 40 Chaffinches in game cover.

Other than that all I can say is that the flashes produced nothing at all, although the pool behind the flash hedge did contain 15 nervous Teal. The water courses are now ice-free, as well as bird-free, and the most notable species on our return journey was a Mistle Thrush.
