6th Nov - high cloud, hazy sunshine, ;light NE, 10C, slight frost again last night.

Cotesbach landfill; Five Ruddy Shelducks still, 12 Red Kites today.


Stanford reservoir;  Afternoon. A drake Pintail, two Goldeneye, four Shoveler and female Goosander were new today, 20 Teal were present too.  Six tree Sparrows were at the feeder.  

I stayed for the Gull roost and Starlings that come to roost in the reed beds, difficult to know how many come, but 4000-6000 would not be unrealistic, possibly even more.  Hopefully the pictures show the murmuration that occurs.
