A very late Webs Count today at the old Tuffins Wildlife Park was fairly uneventful, 10 Teal and breeding Little Grebe the best of the rest.
A substantial mixed hirundine flock (mainly House Martin and Swallow) around c.100 began to build up and were briefly joined by 2 Hawfinches flying north. It took me a while to realise what they were as they were so out of context!
It looked as if they dropped down but couldn't refined them.
