Signs of the goldfinch flock increasing
22nd September 15 morning mid section
low cloud occ drizzle, 10-11°c, 1001mb, NW 7-10 mph
Firstly the squirrel has disappeared probably taken by a fox or badger.
My best flock of goldfinch this winter was over the Barleyfield top south west corner briefly before flying off towards the top eastern side. Otherwise very quiet with two male and two female blackcap popping up regularly throughout the Hanging Gardens. Four jay heading to the alder wood ( Lower Alders ) alongside the Wetlands and two calling chiffchaff the only other interest on the Barleyfield. Elsewhere 3 separate 1st winter moorhen along the canal.

Only things to add were a cormorant flying south and 15-20 house martins briefly over paddocks.
