Migration continues slowly - continued

Saturday 16th Sept 2016

The rain did eventually stop, prompting an outing to the Mancetter Hills on Friday. At the highest point of my walk, which to be honest isn't that high I found several pipits and a Wheatear presumably 'grounded' by the heavy rain. They certainly weren't there a day ago. It was still quite windy as I tried to photograph the pipits with my backup camera with not much success. I thought there might be a Tree pipit in there. Certainly there were a couple of likely candidates.

On Saturday I visited Brandon Marsh.There was a Ruff on East Marsh among the Lapwing flock. A very nervous flock with no less than 3 Sparrowhawks in the surrounding bushes. A young Water Rail made a typically brief appearance in front of the E.Marsh hide.

and that was the week that was !
