The first of the autumn Redwings are now in at Spurn Point with other reports down the east coast along with good numbers of Yellow Browed Warblers also along the east Yorkshire coast. All we need now is some strong easterlies to fetch them our way.
Redwings will soon be appearing followed by Fieldfares with ample berries on the Rowans to invite them down.
If you really want upsetting look on the Spurn Point bird sightings site to see the amazing birds they are getting there just 80 miles away.
Meanwhile, back to reality in Queensbury, empty skies throughout the day with no sign of movement in perfect conditions this morning.
We,re either due for a big push shortly or follow last years episode when it never really happened and the majority of movers by passed us by sticking to the coasts.
At the worst we,ve always the Pinkies and winter thrushes to look forward to.
Check out those Tit and Goldcrest flocks now for a stray Yellow Browed Warbler, Denise is already on stand by.

Just to refresh your memory, this Yellow Browed Warbler was found at Ogden 29/09/2012 by Denise Shields.

NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.
