Shipton-under-Wychwood: 27th September

Shipton-under-Wychwood
1300 Lesser Black-backed Gull: Limited birding currently as have visitors. Large flock of gulls roadside fields between Shipton UW and leftfield held at least 1300. Quick count as doing tourist thing. Hirundine movement: anyone else noticed constant passage between west and south west today? Various spots around Burford, Fifield, Shipton UW all PM, with small numbers mipits and chaffinches. Sadly, all spots had excessive traffic noise. See latest Bitdguides article on visible migration at Spurn by one of the current young guns. 17:53.
11 Yellow-legged Gull 17:53.
6 Herring Gull: Sadly, no Caspian. 17:53.
300 Linnet: Mobile flock feeding in stubble on tariff from leafield to shipton uw. Worth a check for twite by someone unencumbered by tourist duties? 17:53.
