Wilthorpe Marsh am, Low Moor/ Midhope pm.

Wilthorpe Marsh - very steady apart from the Snipe with 1 Jack and 21 Common. A flock of 25 Siskin, 1 Little Owl and 1 GS Pecker were the only noteables. A skein of 100 ish Pinkfeet w over staincross at 9-22am. Low Moor/Midhope totals - Goshawk 1, Sparrowhawk 2, Buzzard 5, Kestrel 4, Raven 6, Crossbill 1, Mistle Thrush 17, Redwing 6+, Fieldfare 1, fem GS Pecker showing well and 2 Swallows. Mirth was delivered mid aft with a characteristic 5 min visit by the WaW team who are still hopeful of last winters GG Shrike returning. 1 of the team is still reeling in shock with the money it cost him to see a few birds at spurn last weekend. How times have changed. Cheers, good birding.
