Donna Nook:
Went looking for the reported Black Redstart between 1310 and 1420 but failed to find it - did see a Redwing though.

Called in at Kirby Moor / Ostlers plantation to try and get Crossbills with no success - did see 2 Green Woodpeckers.

c200 Starling going to roost on the East side of the reserve.

Thanks - I have blogged images of Bearded Tits.
