Deepdale Farm - 29th September 2022

 We gave the farm a try hoping for some classic autumn species and did have some success in the form of a couple of Redwing, a Goldcrest and a single Meadow Pipit. Unfortunately, the session then became rather quiet before turning into what I'll describe as a BlueTitfest in that this species made up over half of the final count.

Age 3 Redwing with classic 'toothed' marking on greater coverts and tertial.

Age 4 Redwing with classic 'skim' marking on greater coverts and tertials.
