YEARLISTING IN 2016

Compared to most recent years, when for example I recorded 165 species in the county in 2011, 187 in 2012 and 173 in 2013, this has been a particularly poor one with just 157 species recorded by mid December - one of my worst years on record

YEARLISTING IN BUCKINGHAMSHIRE

It's all over - 2012 has come to an end. I managed a total of 187 out of the 198 species recorded all told in Buckinghamshire - 94% of the total - probably my highest-ever annual tally.

The current record is 191 species achieved in 2006 and held jointly by both Rob Hill and Simon Nichols

Another productive day at Manor Farm

Now four LITTLE RINGED PLOVERS at Manor Farm.

The bird in Godwit Corner, probably last nights bird, while another three flew in just before seven this morning settled briefly on the spit then circled the site a few times which they were still doing when I left. No sign of yesterday's Common Redshank, it might be in the inlet, but still Green Sandpipers, pair of Oycs and five Goosander (Chris Gleadell)
