Having a bird blog depends on one major factor, the birds ,which are very sadly missing at the moment. The east wind is lacerating and migration has stopped so the last couple of days have been useless.
Redwing with 30 plus and Fieldfare with 20 plus are still hanging on , held up by the easterlies. A couple of Meadow Pipits still are hanging on ,the rest having moved on and just 1 Pied Wagtail has moved over.
The Kestrel has reappeared on her wintering grounds after a few days missing.
 The best of the rest were 2 Re dLegged Partridge, 6 Stock Dove and a Buzzard .Can it get any worse ?
