Hat trick achieved

For the third day in a row a new local MEGA has been found. Today it came in the form of a SNOW BUNTING feeding at Beddington with 2.Reed Buntings, 3.Yellowhammers (site rarity) and 80+Linnets. A nice supporting cast to go with it, too (see Twitter feed).

At Holmethorpe one of the redhead SMEW remained on Mercers Lake and the duck GOLDENEYE also remained on Mercers West Pit. This site also had a good supporting cast (see Twitter feed).

Also, 2.WAXWINGS flew west over Priest Hill, Ewell today.
