Ringstone and Roils Head yesterday





First posting for a while and hopefully first of many more to follow now, as I aim to get out locally Monday and Friday mornings due to a change in work commitments.

So first stop was Ringstone sat in the hide for an hour, not much about but 3 good sized passages of House Martins totalling 100+ birds all stopped to feed briefly over the res. Shame no Hobbies in close attendance.

Also 1 Grey Heron, 3 Snipe, 2 LBB Gulls (1juv), Swallow, several Lapwings and B H Gulls (exact counts in log book), 1 GC Grebe.

Moved onto Roils Head again spent about an hour, no sign of Redstarts but c20 Pied Wagtails similar number of Meadow Pipits (no rings Sean but wasn't aware of your project so not paying close attention)
Goldcrest calling, Greenfinch and 4 Willow Warblers pics are all of the same bird.
