Another, this time showery, day has mostly passed, and there has been one species which has been outstanding today. I counted the highest number of Redwings this year, with a minimum of 46 flying over in 3 hours. This could simply be because I was watching for longer, but most of the 46 were noted in the first hour early this morning.
Meadow Pipit numbers were very low this morning - 4 were all I could find. However, one each of Grey and Pied Wagtails flew over, and I had point-blank views of 2 Chiffchaff on the Montargis Estate. Also 1 Linnet flew over the same area.
Later in the evening the Meadow Pipit passage picked up considerably, with 10 more noted, bringing the day's total up to 14.
