Lumbutts Area

Monday 7th Nov 10am - 1130
Lee Dam
1M Blackcap feeding in conifer
2F Goosander, flew off SE at 10:10
2M, 1F Pochard
Flock of Long-tailed Tits, few Chaffinch.
Also, in fields to SW, large flock of mixed thrushes and Starlings.

Longfield Dam and near Shepherd's Rest
More good flocks of Fieldfare and Starling, there seemed to be slightly less Redwing. One flock had well over 100 Fieldfare and probably 200+ Starling. I suspect there could be at least 3-400 Fieldfare scattered around the fields.
Also at the dam:
6M Tufted Duck
35 Black-headed Gull
1 Common Gull
1 Lapwing
65 Canada Geese
c25 Mallard and hybrids
1 Meadow Pipit heard
