Today's bright start soon gave way to drizzle which meant my excursion this morning was only a brief one. Having seen the forecast I decided to stay close to home and settled for a stroll near the STW. My walk began with a Grey Wagtail in the village, recent rainfall means that the stream is running high and fast forcing the wagtails to feed elsewhere. Near the STW there was a small group of Teal at their traditional spot on the ponds. Both Siskins and Redpolls were present in the general area while Redwings and a single Fieldfare where working their way through this Autumn's bumper crop of haws. Increasing amounts of drizzle were now falling and I opted to leave the birds to their own devices and headed for home.
