A wonderful time of the year to be out in woodlands. Colour is everywhere you look! Leaves falling in earnest now, as is the beech mast, which attracts hordes of birds. Had this Hawfinch this morning among the commoner species feeding in the leaf litter. One of my favourite birds, I love the subtle bluish half collar on the hindneck.
Other birds included 32 Goosander, 20 Great Crested Grebe, 5 Pochard, tufted Ducks and 185 Siskin.
