A bitty but interesting day.

Overcast and gloomy with light rain, 3°, light NE.

A message early this morning from PR to say that the Geese were on the South Stoke side of the river, then 2 hours later another message from AD to say they were back on the Cholsey side.

I popped down to take a quick gander at the Geese (excuse the pun). And the 6 White fronted Geese were again consorting with a flock of Canada and Greylag Geese.

Not much else around, so I went down along the Bunk line. It then started to rain a bit heavier so, basically, I gave up and went back home.

Alan was out along the Bunk area, mid-afternoon and found a Stonechat but pretty quiet overall.

I ventured out again late afternoon with little more success. 2 Grey Wagtail, a Chiffchaff, a singing Mistle Thrush and a few Fieldfare and Redwing.

Later I went down to the garden around 17:00 and counted in excess of 3000 Corvids flying over, heading south-west. They were streaming over for approx. 20-25 minutes.

AD, PC & PR.
