Migration continues 

24th September 15              morning                 mid section

mostly sunny,  10-11°c,   1010mb,      SW 6-11 mph

Plenty of migrating warblers today with at least four chiffchaff in the Paddocks, at least 8 blackcap ( 1♂ Shrike Bushes, at least  3♂ + 3♀ in elder bushes near the Barleyfield crossing plus another female blackcap in the elder bushes further north towards the north west corner )
 and an unexpected whitethroat near the said crossings.Two raven flew over to the north east not long after Ian left ( hope he got them ). Top of Barleyfield from Squirrels Grave were two coal tit, maybe the forerunners of the predicted huge invasion from Scandinavia which also includes siskin.
