Several Redwings flew out of the spinney trees tops, heading vaguely north in to the fog, to the west of the village.
Carl text to say he had both Iceland and Glaucous Gull juvs at Shawell, so I set off to have a look. The Iceland Gull was still present, a smart juvenile, sitting by the pools before flying off toward such the landfill area. Will try again this afternoon for a longer period.
This afternoon was very quite at Shawell, many Gulls had moved off and others were disappearing quickly. So I went o have a look at the Cotesbach pools close by. Here there was 35 Pied Wagtails with a few Meadow Pipits feeding in the rough and around the pools. About 20 Redwing and some Song Thrush were also present and a cock Pheasant strutted by. A Raven flew passed calling.
