8th September: More Yellow Wagtails
A late afternoon visit to the Meadow found the cattle up near the poplar trees and a good number (20+) of YELLOW WAGTAILS in amongst them. They are very difficult to digiscope due to their habit of feeding in amongst the feet of the cattle and moving on from cow to cow very quickly. Nevertheless after a bit of patience I managed a few record shots. There are plenty of pied wagtails around as well though they don't tend particularly to favour the feeding cattle.
Mary Gregory reports: "The hybrid goose with the white eye-ring has beenin the flock at Godstow picnic area in the last few days. Still quite a few swallows and martins at the river, esp between Medley and the Perch."
