Horrid autumn- 26/9/17

6:35-8:05

Viz mig (west)- Brent Goose 125, Grey Heron 8 (south-west), Meadow Pipit 16, Chaffinch 5, Linnet 9.
Viz mig (inland, south)- Sandwich Tern 11, Brent Goose 208.




Sun up, sun down, Brent on the inland route once again.

Another 440 south-west in the last hour of the day. The lunchtime walk had also been on this stretch, with just three Brent loafing near Bloors; clearly behaving correctly, spending the middle part of the day feeding (it should really only take the dawn flights a couple of hours to reach south coast feeding grounds).

I've been told not all comments are publishing. There seems to be a problem between Blogger and Chrome, and I'm being told if you have a problem you should try a different search engine.

All a pain in the proverbial. Sorry! I'm a luddite/technophobe (still won't even have a mobile phone) so much else is beyond me..

If still doesn't work, pls send me a DM/post to my twitter a/c @dunnokev to let me know- thanks! Kev 18/12/21
