26th November

Increasingly windy today with spells of hefty showers through the morning - conditions that scuppered attempts at meaningful searches for passerines. The day's only reports were of 6 Common Scoter and 2 Pintail through off the Bill, a Merlin rather forlornly looking for overhead migrants there, 4 Fieldfares at Southwell and 3 Knot amongst the wader selection at Ferrybridge.
