All change on the weather front today, gone was the sunshine, and back were the wind and cloud. Three species seen today that were absent yesterday, LINNET, LONG TAILED TIT and KESTREL, oh well, thats what keeps me watching! Two CORMORANT flew from the lake area, someone got there before I did! A nice sight was that of a KINGFISHER, which was bashing a small fish on a branch, prior to eating it, too far away for a photo though. Most of the FIELDFARE had moved on again, as had all the Siskin, but plenty of REDWING were seen,in different size flocks. A large corvid flock fed in the sheep pasture at migrant alley, otherwise it was an average type jan. day. 43 species seen in all, but none new for the month.
