It’s incredible how mild it felt today compared to recent weeks, with a balmy 13 degrees registered. The storm was pretty well bedded in by this afternoon making WeBS counting conditions difficult. Let’s start with Waxwings though as only 3 appeared at the Upton site today in Dacombe Drive. There was potentially another sighting down by Upton CP, but there’s a good chance there are even more out there to be found. There were only 2 Black-necked Grebe seen off Middle Beach and the 2 Hen Harriers and a Goshawk were seen in Middlebere again.
