Old Moor: Bittern 2+ roosted, Goosander 39 roosted, Redshank 2, Green Sand' 1, Barn Owl 1, Tawny Owl 1, Waxwing 5 briefly in playground, Brambling 3.

Broomhill Flash: Goldeneye 4, Short-eared Owl 1 (late afternoon).

About 100 Golden Plovers in field on left as you come into Thurnscoe from Houghton.

As I passed through Hemmingfield late morning about 40 Waxwings were near The Albion boozer.

Drove on Springwood Road, Hoyland twice this morning without seeing a Waxwing but they do tend to rove. Around 60 were seen yesterday afternoon. As the Short-eared photos have finally gone to ground thought I'd throw some more Waxwings at you. Well, they are pretty!
