Fairly quiet along the Bunk line this afternoon. The pair of Stonechat back in situ and a couple of Grey Wagtail on the Bunk line!
The usual Herring Gull present and a good number of Black-headed Gull loafing around.
And again plenty of Fieldfare and Redwing present.
Meanwhile Alan took a visit to Radley to see a pair of Ring-necked Duck that had arrived. This North American species is a regular vagrant to Europe. It is a strongly migratory species with the first UK record in 1955 and averages approx. 20 per year and it has been recorded in Oxfordshire before now. There are also escapes from wildfowl collections to consider.
