Migrants kinda weekend



The pits year list has limped to 101 with the additions of 2 Redshank & a House Martin. Little Gulls have been appearing all over the local area but sadly no luck at the pits despite some top searching efforts by all the team.

Over the weekend I visited Earslwood & Bredon Hill in addition to daily visits to the pits.  Earlswood by pure luck had a Common Redstart in a horse paddock by the Red Lion pub, whilst walking around the lakes we found 2 Goosander & a male Pochard. 

On Sunday, I headed up Bredon Hill where after a good deal of searching myself & Francis Peplow enjoyed an stunning hour of watching a male Ring Ouzel at close quarters. Other sightings included several Yellowhammers, Skylark,a single Common Redstart, 2 Buzzard & a Red Kite.
