25th Sept - rain first thing slowly easing to a murky but mild day, light SE, 15C

Willey; once the rain eased this morning there was quite a lot of activity around the village.  A mixed flock in the church yard contained Blue, Great, Long-tailed and Coal Tits, Goldcrest and 5+ Chiffchaff.  A Nuthatch appeared and 8 Greenfinches flew over.
Over the fields just off the lane bend there was at least 50 Swallows and 10 House Martins feeding, super watching them and a Cormorant flew over eastward.

Stanford reservoir; a look this afternoon produced 5 Black-tailed Godwits, a single Ruff (reeve), at least 47 Wigeon and c200 Teal.  Otherwise things much as usual.
