Turn of the Finches

Skies tonight, looking good for tomorrow

House Sparrows on seeds.

A poor day today with fog till mid morning then a mixture of drizzle and heavy showers. By 1800hrs the sky cleared leaving a bright red sunset which will hopefully lead to a decent moving day tomorrow.

Today was the day of the finches with several good Chaffinch flocks over around mid day as well as Gold and Greenfinch moving in the light rain. Three Jays went over west and a very high Sparrowhawk >S.

Flocks of up to 40 House Sparrows were after seeds on the rugby field.

No sign of any Redwings today.
