After a weekend at Spurn I made a short trip up to Soil Hill yesterday evening for the last couple of hours of light.
- Outstanding to find this Jack Snipe, typically relying on its camouflage and not flinching at all even when I was close. First time I have seen one on the deck here, normally I just flushed them.
This morning produced little in the way of VizMig in strong winds.
- A burst of 93 Woodpigeon was the highest count of any species this morning
- Passerine totals were limited to 84 Meadow Pipit, 4 alba Wagtails, 4 Chaffinch, 3 Bullfinch, 1 Linnet, 17 Goldfinch & 6 Siskin, all south between 07:30 - 09:00. Hopefully more to come in the next few days as the wind drops.
- Two Teal on the NK Pond (one drake)
In total managed 39 species this morning, the full list here; https://ebird.org/checklist/S120371897
