Froward Point


07.30-13.55. Cloud 8/8. Northerly veering north-easterly 3-4 (gusting 5). Cold.

c. 20 Chiffchaff, 10-15 Goldcrest, 1 Firecrest, 5 Wheatear and 3 Stonechat at or around Froward plus 3 Ring Ouzel together still. 10+ Song Thrush, 2 Redwing, 6 Siskin, 17 Swallow and a handful of Meadow Pipit east/northeast.

Also 1 Short-eared Owl flushed from a crop field beside the track just before the last gate to the point at 08.00, flew to a nearby hedge, watched until 08.30. Light was poor (as is my digiscoping!)
