I watched several skeins flying over Huttoft this afternoon and later birds were still flying over Saltfleet calling in the dark. 10 Whoopers flew south over Huttoft. Somebody was taking potshots at the geese from land by the big house next to Huttoft pit but I didn't see any fall. At Pyes Hall in the morning a male and ringtail Hen Harrier and a Short-eared Owl were hunting. Also there were 13 Twite and a Lapland Bunting. |
