Mipits

Good numbers of Meadow Pipits in the uplands today with 50+ at Broadstones Reservoir alone.
Ingbirchworth Reservoir - 3 Goldeneyes, 2 Tufted Ducks, 69 Canada Geese and gull numbers well down on those of late last week with c350 Black-headed Gulls and c20 Common Gulls.
Spicer House Lane - large flock of c300 Starlings and c200 Fieldfares.
Whitley Edge - flock of 31 Carrion Crows.
A good search in the above area  drew a blank on Wheatears.
Underbank Reservoir - 2 Great Crested Grebes, 8 Tufted Duck, 1 Coot and 1 Common Buzzard.
