Butser

Half breakfast, pot of tea and the crossword with just a couple of flyover Siskin.

At Butser two flyover Lesser Redpolls, at least forty Meadow Pipits on the top and two very close and nicely lit Ravens which performed well before cruising off eastwards.

Looking back westwards across the field produced two Roe Deer not far from where I saw them a few days back.

Otherwise rather quiet. Luckily bumped into Keith and whilst chatting, the first Ring Ouzel made itself known by calling  - nice views of probably six birds before thwy went quiet and slipped down out of view. Without this chance encounter I would have gone home Ouzel-less.

No Chiffchaffs heard nor hirundines seen.
