Monday 25 August 2014

Continuous and sometimes heavy rain fell throughout today, giving little chance to get out birding. I did however clamber into my waterproof gear for a soggy 90 minute trek around Migrant Alley this morning, but in the conditions little was seen, a CHIFFCHAFF called from the Greenhouse Grounds as I passed through and I was pleased to eventually see the 3 WHINCHAT that were present yesterday, they were feeding on one of the paddocks, that alone made it a worthwhile walk  :-)

Not much left in the bog photo folder, just the Wheatear photo's I took yesterday.......

What a crap day, weather ruined everything today, hopefully camping tomorrow. Nice sunny shots though to brighten up the day.

Barely left the house here today Warren, freezing and howling a gale, so your 3 whinchats are a real boon

Davyman,
I've got a feeling it's going to be a long winter!

Whinchats again made it all worth while. The forecast looks good tomorrow for me, and hope it improves on today for you too Warren.
