Peregrine flew north over WMWest at 9.10, perhaps heading for the Waste Disposal chimney at Angel Road. More movement with a flock of about 45 fieldfares SW over Clendish at 8am (my first big group so far). Also c80 redwings SW at about 7.40 plus a few odd ones later. Invisible birds heard overhead included siskin at 7.20 and skylark at 9.20. Met up with 'the two' goldcrests along the towpath. My two egyptian geese (Little and Large) back at Centre again. Disturbed one little egret feeding in the west channel at WMEast.
Saw a person watching the 'open' areas on Clendish who I also saw last Thursday. Once again s/he was on the opposite side of the Marsh to me so I wasn't able to speak to them - house sparrow counting?
The shoveler I reported Sat, were the first of the year for me, bringing my count for 2010 to 98 (99 if you want to count the escaped canary).
