    Various reports of numbers but on average, about 10 or so seems to be quoted most. No sign of Bittern(s) at Blashford up until about 3pm but Great Grey Shrike on edge of woodland facing water works before being "escorted" towards Goosander Hide area by smaller birds. Apparently one was seen...

    A good afternoon at Keyhaven Hello, I thought that perhaps this thread should be kept going with a posting ... Firstly, many thanks to those who offered sage advice concerning the Keyhaven locale birds! We spent a good and enjoyable afternoon, mostly cloud-covered with a few breaks for...

    We are down at Keyhaven via N/F at the weekend and just wondered what we should keep our eyes open for? I have to admit that seeing a Wryneck would add one more tick to my "list"! Many thanks for any input ...
