Sunday September 30

Cloudy with a very light north-westerly.

Dave joined me for a visit which can best be described as quiet....again. The middle period of autumn between the departures and the arrivals. No longer present were the hirundines, while still hanging on was the odd Blackcap and at least four Chiffchaffs.

The only sign of winter was a single Siskin, which flew over. There are still plenty of Meadow Pipits around, we estimated about 60. The Flash field remains disappointing, no Green Sandpipers, seven Snipe, about 30 Teal, 202 Greylag Geese, and 45 Canada Geese.

Common Snipe
I need a holiday.
