MORE SUNDAY SIGHTINGS - BEN MILLER

A few birds of note from today;

A COMMON SHELDUCK briefly early morning on Marsworth (Dave Bilcock)

2 Ringed Plovers on Pitstone Industrial Estate scrape, with 1 Common Redshank on the flooded pool south of the estate

3 Common Chiffchaffs singing along the canal between Startops and Bulborne

1 female Red-crested Pochard still on Marsworth

Raptors very much in evidence today, high counts included 7 Common Buzzards together from Ivinghoe Beacon car park, 4 Red Kites together over Marsworth (a good count for the ressies) and a large female Sparrowhawk over Wilstone (Ben Miller)
