Tripits

This is a panoramic view from The Pinnacle, Sandy (you should be able to scroll around it usung your mouse).  It is a great vismig spot, virtually unknown about until I started putting in some time up here in autumn 2007.

This morning it produced two Tree Pipits together about twenty minutes after sunrise - my first of the year in Beds.  I don't usually do any vismig sessions until well in to September but I am now wondering whether I should do a few more in August, just to catch the Tree Pipit and Yellow Wag movements?  Maybe I will.

Here's a recording of the Tripits from my Remembird:

Wonderful Wicken!

Had another day out with Mr Hackett today. What a cracker! Started off by going back for the showy Tree Pipit (see the bottom shot) - then had a sausage sarnie break, before going for the Squacco Heron at Wicken Fen. Eventually it showed really well out side the hide overlooking Bakers Fen. A fantastic end to the day. I wonder what Mr H will have to show for his efforts?
