It's been a strangely slow autumn. South-westerly winds continue to blow and I found myself reading the signs and struggling into the field for a quick visit to the patch.
Sure enough there was virtually no overhead passage and barely a handful of Redwings on site. I hope this means autumn migrants are just delayed and not that they've gone somewhere else.
The flash field produced the nearest thing to a highlight, with 30 Teal and a Green Sandpiper making a welcome return.

The walk back brought me a Redpoll, a Siskin and a Linnet, hardly the stuff of dreams.
