Great Grey Shrike: Cholsey
Great Grey Shrike
again on the Cholsey side of the Thames at Cholsey marsh late this afternoon
but distant as usual, seen from Ferry rd. Also ranging on the "Stoke" side of the Thames.
Most impressive though was a count of 387 Corn Buntings that came into the roost
this evening, in fact so many that they were roosting on parts of the marsh
that they do not usually use. We estimated that the roost held roughly 2% of
the British population of Corn Bunting!
30 to 40 Reed
Buntings and a couple of Yellowhammer
also roosting there.
