10 October 2009
Hundreds of Redwings tumbled out of the grey sky and streamed inland this morning. Robins seem to have arrived in fair numbers, and some Skylarks were moving.

Later in the morning our friend Terry had two Firecrests and a Ring Ouzel, and a Grey Wagtail was present near the pub.

The Humpback Whale was still in Pete's pond, along with a flock of Spoon-billed Sandpipers and at least three icebergs. When will this cold snap end?

Amazingly there was a Great Shearwater past today, riding on the back of a Humpback Whale. Ted grabbed some footage of the whale:
