Below is a snippet of how October unfolded on the bird front, however for the full write up and more information on the other wildlife species seen on the NNR and nearby Skipwith Common follow the link here.
October is an
exciting time for bird watching, with the change of season and migration in
full swing the potential is there for the unexpected to occur. This October
certainly didn’t fail to deliver with some of the most notable migration
watches taking place between the 5th and the 12th. The fairly dry conditions continued throughout the month - very different from this time last year.
The Wash Dykes drying out - Skipwith Common
The 5th
saw a noticeable movement of Skylark through the valley, along with the
last sizable departing flocks of Swallows and Martins heading south,
alongside incoming Pink-footed Geese on the 5th and 6th.
Increasing numbers of Song Thrush and Robins were noted at this
time, possibly filtering inland from the coastal influxes seen the previous
week. Small numbers of Chiffchaffs and Blackcaps moved through
the reserve with a Cetti’s Warbler on the 5th and then the
star find - the first reserve Yellow-browed Warbler at Bank Island from
the 6th.
The next
few days provided good raptor watching conditions with Red Kite, Marsh
Harrier, Osprey and Hobby leading the cast, whilst the
wandering Great White Egret put in yet another very brief
appearance at Wheldrake on the 8th. A change in the weather to
easterly winds and showers/rain opened the migration flood gates on the 10th
with 2200 Redwing, 350 Fieldfare, 16 Brambling and the first
3 returning Whooper Swans being noted.
Whooper Swans - North Duffield Carrs
The same weather system was
responsible for a large displacement of Gannets out of the north sea and
into the Humber Estuary. As many as 700 birds may have moved up the Humber,
reaching as far as the Humber Bridge which appears to be a huge barrier to
them. However, many did pass over and under the bridge and continued inland.
This movement brought singles over North Duffield on the 10th with
another rescued nearby the following day. What was presumably the same movement
may have also accounted for a Great Skua heading east over Bank Island
on the 15th – the third record for the reserve following individuals
in 1981 and 2007.

ReplyDeleteHow to get your ex back fast! I was hurt and heart broken when a very big problem occurred in my marriage seven months ago, between me and my husband . so terrible that he took the case to court for a divorce. he said that he never wanted to stay with me again, and that he didn't love me anymore. So he packed out of the house and made me and my children pass through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get him back, after much begging, but all to no avail. and he confirmed that he had made his decision, and he never wanted to see me again. So one evening, as I was coming back from work, I met an old friend of mine who asked my husband .So I explained everything to him, so he told me that the only way I can get my husband back is to visit a priest, because it has really worked for him too. So I never believed in spells, but I had no other choice, than to follow his advice. Then he gave me the Email address of the priest whom he visited. So the next morning, I sent a letter to the address he gave to me, and the priest assured me that I will get my husband back the next day. What an amazing statement!! I never believed, so he spoke with me, and told me everything that I needed to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my husband who didn't call me for the past 7 months, gave me a call to inform me that he was coming back. So Amazing!! So that was how he came back that same day, with lots of love and joy, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me and my children. Then from that day, our relationship was now stronger than how it was before, by the help of a priest. So, I will advise you out there if you have any problem contact LORD ZULU, I give you 100% guarantee that he will help you.. or WhatsApp him on +1(909)7814612

ReplyDeleteHow I got my husband back after he left me and our son for another woman. My name is Alice Becker, from the United States. My husband and I have been married for about 4 yrs now. We were happily married with a 2yrs old son. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behaviour from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly cares about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Priest Odin can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should try him out. I contacted him and told him my problems and he told me what to do and I did it and he did a spell for me. 48 hours later, my husband came to me and apologised for the wrongs he did and promised never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. My family and I are living together happily again.. All thanks to Priest Odin. If you have any problem contact him and I guarantee you that he will help you.
