Back to Tottenham Marsh today to find autumn passage still in operation. One brambling calling over WM East at 7.45 which I didn't see, then a second over Clendish Marsh at 8.25 which I did see, although not close enough to see any plumage details. (Terry saw a female brambling along the Navigation Towpath on 20 Oct.). Also my first fieldfares of the autumn, groups of 8, then 6, then 23 all going west calling but then a group of 3 came down to the trees just north of the pond. One or two redwings going west calling as well and 2 siskins south over Clendish Marsh Car Park at 8.05. But where are the stonechats???? Usually see these from mid-Sept. I've still not seen any, and there don't seem to be any resident ones anywhere.

Finally, the 2 egyptian geese (Little and Large) are gone and either a single is back or it's "Large" and "Little" has left him/her.
