A 54 strong flock of Whimbrel is still present on fields just to the east of the Westhay Moor Carpark on the south side of the road.

About 4.45 this afternoon, 2 flocks of Whimbrel low over London Drove, 42 and later on 15 (so could have been part of the 42).  5 hobbies (4 seen together, so definitely different), many hundreds of swallows plus all the regulars.
