Buff Bellied Pipit

A nice early start on Sunday saw me up and out before sunrise. I headed over to the Wirral for the chance to see a Buff Bellied Pipit that had been showing well for some weeks. I turned up and knew I was in the right place when I came across quite a number of parked cars lining Denhall Lane. It took a few minutes before someone picked it out amongst the Meadow Pipits it was flitting about with. Another lifer for me. It's been a productive few weeks. Long may it continue.




 
 
Some of the birders that were in attendance very early this morning.

  3. Gotta love it when you find a lifer! Weekend birding can be quite productive as there's always a good chance other birders will have already located the bird you are looking for. ;))

    All the best Gordon.
