Blakehill recently

3 Oct - Several recent walks at Blakehill. Stonechats are passing through and hopefully arriving for the winter, with a flock of 8 seen this evening, and a late Whinchat this week as well. The Wheatears seem to have finally moved on southwards, still a few Chiffchaffs calling in the hedges though. I’ve seen Peregrine on 2 of my last 3 visits. Good numbers of Swallows present especially in the strong winds at the end of Sept, swooping low around the cattle, a Snipe flyby, and good numbers of Meadow Pipits passing overhead.
