Here are a few of the good birds seen on the patch since autumn 2003… it’s not a complete showing, by any stretch of the imagination! Missing notables include 1 of 2 Pallas’s Grasshopper Warblers; Olive-backed Pipit; Great Grey Shrike; Buff-breasted Sandpiper; Pallid Swift; Pectoral Sandpiper; Blyth’s Reed Warbler; and several each of commoner stuff like Yellow-browed and Icterine Warblers, Red-breasted Flycatchers and Bluethroats.
All photos are mine, apart from the Brown Shrike (courtesy of JLI); and the Pallas’s Grasshopper Warbler and the Arctic Redpoll – both of which were taken by, and courtesy of the finder, Peter Stronach. Thanks Peter!
