Beacon RING OUZEL still - 7th day

Watched the RING OUZEL on the sheep field below the Beacon at 8am with Mike Wallen - it comes out of the scrub between the Ridegway path and the sheep field and feeds out in the open so is pretty easy to see. We also saw at least a pair of Wheatear in the same area. The Linnets were very much in evidence today. Just Blackcap and Chiffchaff in the Top Scrub. No winter Thrushes anywhere. Only 3 Corn Buntings heard, all on the fencelines of arable fields. Bloomin' cold wind........Sue Rowe
