Vis Migging !

Great migration over the patch tonight

first off @ 17:45 when a COMON BUZZARD flew high North West over my house , it was clearly a migrant rather then one of the locals as it was keeping to one straight line and flappping and gliding while maintaining a steady height.

Then a quick stop off in  the layby to scan the lake , nothing on the lake , but something caused me to look up where a flock of 40 FIELDFARES and 1 REDWING was flying over quite high in a due easterly direction , this was followed a minute later by a second flock , this time of 42 FIELDFARES

I wondered if these were some of the 500+ FIELDFARES that i found feeding in a single field today , just west of Nash ( to the west of MK )

Great few moments of patching ....

Cheers
