c.15 feeding along the hedgerow on minor rd to North Drain Pumping Stn on Tealham Moor. My first on The Levels this autumn.

A few Redwings around Westhay in the last week but a big flock (20 plus) at Steart a week ago Oct 18. No sign of Fieldfare yet. Not exactly winter thrushes but I have only seen one Song Thrush in almost 2 months which was a brief sighting in Canada Farm on September 5. Anyone else agree that they have become hard to find this year after a promising start in Spring.

My first 2 Fieldfare of the autumn in the orchard/campsite off Harepits Lane, Butleigh yesterday

First Redwing here (Chipstable) on 11Oct26.

But this morning (18Oct) a huge passage of over 2,200 (all flying north).

Plus 9 Fieldfare.
