I did my WeBS count at Girton Pits this morning; numbers of wildfowl were pretty unremarkable, but I did have six Redpoll sp. fly south at Spalford Pit. One of these birds goes down as 'most frustrating bird of the week', as it was pretty pale and showed a large white rump...
A quick spin round Collingham produced a couple of Redshank, 1 Common Sand and 1 Green Sand, and Peregrine washing in the new workings on Ferry Lane Lake. No sign of yesterday's hooded gull amongst the LBBG's.
I then couldn't be bothered to go over to Annesley Pit Top for the Hoopoe, a decision I will probably live to regret.
