Regent's Park first Oct part 1
October up until this point 22nd October has been fairly quiet due to settled weather apart from a couple of days in the early part of the month. There were a couple of days when the wind was more favourable swinging around to the south or south east. This brought a few Meadow Pipit, Fieldfare, Redwing, Chaffinch, Greenfinch and 1 Brambling. The skies have often been clear meaning easy flying and at a high altitude for birds heading out of Scandinavia. Wood Pigeon movement has happened on a couple of mornings but not in large numbers. Waterfowl numbers are very low apart from the Shoveler who have exceeded 50+ on a couple of occasions, being joined by the odd Wigeon and Teal.
