29th November - cloudy, misty/murky all day, practically still, 6C

Willey; all the usual at the feed station, including four Greenfinch, two Coal Tits, Green and Great Spotted Woodpeckers.  

Cotesbach Landfill; after lunch still very difficult to see much, but I could just make out the two Shelduck were still present.

Stanford reservoir; fortunately the mist lifted and thinned a little improving visibility.  

Eight Goldeneye and a drake Goosander, along with the other usual ducks.  A Stonechat near the dam was in the usual area.  Green And Great-Spotted Woodpeckers, a good number of Fieldfare and Redwings.  Blackbirds were more numerous - more migrants noticed on the east coast in the last few days.

I was watching a couple of Tree Sparrows at the feed station when a Sparrowhawk flew in like an arrow and flushed the passerines.

Linnets were starting to come in to roost and a single Goldfinch was seen.
