Hi, A chilly but gorgeous day at Frampton. It started at -7.5 degrees, then rose to the dizzy heights of -1. All the freshwater bodies were completely covered in ice. Highlights; Lapland bunting - At least 83 on the saltmarsh, the highest ever count for the reserve. Flocks of 36, 35 (seen at the same time) and 9 plus a few extras. Twite - 9 on the saltmarsh Peregrine - 1 Merlin - 1 Common buzzard - 1 Barn owl - 1 Black-tailed godwit - 6. These birds, all juveniles, were feeding as close as four metres in front of the Visitor Centre windows all day. Cheers, John |
