Wintersett + update 04.09.14

18°C but felt cooler in a light easterly, 8/8 cloud.
Anglers CP Vis Mig:  After 4 and a half hours we'd had 5 Meadow Pipits and 35 Swallow going S .  Absolutely dire as far a birds are concerned. The worst/slowest September session here.
Anglers CP: Usual adult Yellow-legged Gull, Common Sandpiper 2,  Yellow Wagtail 1 over and Wigeon 10.
Wintersett Res: Shoveler 12.   Things picked up after lunch when a Greenshank flew south!
This post will  be updated later this evening. (Hopefully!) See footnote.
Lynz Harston had a Common Blue at CHRes yesterday.  Ralph and Les had 2 at ACP this morning.

The afternoon got no better - nothing to report!
