Wheater and more besides..

Pete Lambert wrote yeasterday:

Caught up at last with George’s record of an autumn wheatear on Clendish Marsh this morning – probably because George was standing next to me at the time! It flew off to the Lockwood Res. We also saw a whinchat there, and a male reed bunting – a bit hard to find reed buntings lately on the Marsh. Several meadow pipits flying over calling, all going south.
After George had left me, I saw 3 yellow wagtails flying high south calling, over the WM West, near the north end. Then when I’d left the WM East and was walking down ‘my’ footpath east of the Marsh, a hobby appeared over the allotments there. It drifted west over WM East where it appeared to catch and eat something from its feet. Then it drfited off north over WME.
