Sloe Gin - Joe Bonamassa

 We should kick off by admitting our foibles of the 25th inst as something of a minor

WATERCOCK-UP
which is in fact a White-breased Waterhen and not as published, this is in fact a
WATERCOCK
not seen in Taiwan but in Sri Lanka. The appropriate ammendment has been made so back to the business in hand.
The beautiful glow of dawn with Venus just visible above left, but with little (nothing) to keep us in the southern reaches we headed north to find something
of an influx of mostly vocal
GREENFINCH
With another blank at the Irrigation Pond it was a blessing to find a dozen
TEAL
back on the
Gravel Pit
along with
what is now being considered as
an over-wintering
GREY WAGTAIL
On the way to the Sewerage Works to continue the seemingly everlasting pursuit of
Black Redstart
this
CORMORANT
was noticed on a distant pylon. Once a favoured perch for a dozon or more this event is a
First for the Year.
More of the same of recent days but most now being far more cooperative such as
very noisy
HERRING GULLs
nothing new in that!
JACKDAWs
at a favoured perch along with this
ROBIN
finding sustenance around the puddles.
A fine end to the morning as we located on 'call'
a flock of some 20 to 30
LONG-TAILED TITs
foraging the hedgerows. 
and finally, but by no means least it was as far back as early September when new-found friends asked the whereabouts of any Blackthorn on the property and willingly gave the location. It was on the C word morning that they returned bearing this gift.
