Early October 3rd to 10th in Regent's Park

Regent's Park

Things have quietened down in the past week, with only a trickle of migrants passing through.
Apart from the species in the pictures below there have been a handful others seen.

Meadow Pipit: a few birds pass through most mornings, you tend to hear them first and then trying to pick them up in a blue sky can be difficult.
Pied Wagtail: recorded most days out on the open spaces.
Swallow: one flew south on Saturday.
Ring Ouzel: 2 birds flew east over area 39 at 8,15am on the 7th, a male was flushed the next day from the drinking pool in the Chat Enclosure (area 39) at 9.25am. It disappeared before I could even get a record shot of it.
Redwing: the first birds of the autumn headed NW on 7th. There have been one's and two's most day's.
Blackcap: up to 4 birds have been feeding in the Chat Enclosure.
Chiffchaff: birds can still be found in areas 1, 9, 31, 32, 39 and 41.
Lesser Redpoll:  2 singles have passed through.
Siskin: 6 birds headed NW on Sunday, 1 or 2 birds lingered in area 41.
Chaffinch and Greenfinches have also began to move.

    The Stonechat was keeping an eye on the Sparrowhawk that was soaring high overhead.








    There are still juvenile Herons that haven't left their nest's yet.








   The Chiffchaff's certainly vary in colour.





   The Fox was wondering what I was looking at.
