A better day but very dull and drab still with a strong SW>5 but dry till late afternoon.
A flock of 9 Redwing came over mid afternoon >NE and several LBBs flew over heading >NW.
Otherwise things were quiet with 11 Commons and 6 BH gulls in the park midday and 2 Pied Wags on the top pitch.
NK Queensburybirder called to say he is having computer problems and after reporting 3 Snow Bunts on Soil Hill he managed to turn up the 4th on a second visit but 1 bird was keeping away from the other 3 favouring the northern end and around the heather to the NW. Hopefully Nigel will soon have things back to normal.
