A lot of thrushes and other migrants had cleared out, but reasonable numbers still remained. Notable passerines included a new
Yellow-browed Warbler at Westness, a
Crossbill, 3
Lapland Buntings, 2
Greenfinches, 50
Bramblings, a
Ring Ouzel, 4
North-Western Redpolls and the same
Arctic Redpoll. The
American Golden plover was still with the
Golden Plovers near the surgery.
Another Hornemanni Arctic Redpoll picture - but we'll never tire of seeing these birds up close. In the hand, this individual can be identified as a first-winter male.
And, from the opposite end of the Dulux redpoll chart, this large and dingy North-Western specimen is probably a Greenlandic Rostrata bird.
