What a difference a day makes 


14th September 15         morning              mid section

O/cast cold,  9°c,  994mb,  NE 9 mph.



Warm & sunny yesterday --- overcast & cold today, plenty of action yesterday--- pretty dead today, that's autumn and that's birding for you. That is birding here in our valley, it's not necessarily so at other sites, like inland reservoirs or coast and estuary's with different species ( waders,gulls ) involved, Blue sky and sunshine do it for us but the worse the weather the better the birding elsewhere.
Four blackcap together in the Barleyfield Annex producing a little sub-song was about as good as it got this morning.
