passing out to the west, over Wakefield, and moving southwards. The
first pulse started about 07.10 hrs, 10,000 by 07.40 hrs and 20,000 by 08.20hrs! .
There was a notable slow down after 08.30hrs and very few moving by 09.00hrs. Totat count was 23,700! Skylark 14
Going east: Pink footed Goose - 440 went east in 5 skeins this morning and 153 went west in the afternoon.
Another highlight was a Hawfinch, which came in
amongst a mixed flock of Fieldfare, Redwing and Lesser Redpolls, and
landed in trees by the hide - but wasn't seen again!
