News from the East

Dartford warbler still present at Worlds End yesterday, although it is becoming more elusive. Crossbill, redpoll, siskin there in good numbers. Sadly to misty to see much there yesterday, and worse today so i did not bother going up. First sand martins yesterday at the Flash, along with displaying great crested grebe, reed bunting and numerous chiffchaffs. No sign of lesser peckers around Cox Lane Marford sadly. Today 3 waxwings showing well on Deeside Industrial Park outside the BASF entrance in Zone 3. Still berries there so they may linger. Blackcap and chiffchaf also there. Kev.
