A
walk along the River Severn from Buildwas to Leighton first thing was quiet
with the highlight being a Redshank
on Leighton Flats (scarce in the winter) along with 7 Goosander, 10 Herons and
2 Little Grebes; on the way up to Spurn I called in at Stainforth near
Doncaster where unfortunately it had clouded over and was now pretty dark, the
wintering Rough-legged
Buzzard showed
well though albeit distantly. I then
spent an hour at Skeffling late afternoon where birds included a ringtail Hen
Harrier, a Peregrine causing havoc in amongst a huge Woodpigeon flock far to
the north and a big flock of 140+ Pink-footed Geese.
