11th Dec - cloudy am, light rain/dull/mist pm, light SW, 6C

Shawell sandpit; am. c150 Teal, 19 Shoveler, single Shelduck, 10+ Red Kites, five Common Gulls, relatively low number of other Gulls.  However, after I left Carl spotted a juv Iceland Gull flying over.

Harborough Magna; pm.  After lunch I visited a Sunflower field I had spotted here.  Sure enough it was attracting Finches and Buntings.  The weather deteriorated so these numbers are only indicators and will be much higher.  Linnet c50, Greenfinch 20+, Brambling 10+, Chaffinch 20+, Yellowhammer 2+, Sparrowhawk 1.
