Round 2 with Mealy's

Back at Rainton Meadows today for seconds of the Mealy Redpoll, I was rewarded for my patience and I managed to pick out at least 2, well thats if I haven't made any mis ID's. Still not 100% confident with my Redpoll ID but the two birds were clearly different looking to me and slightly larger and colder looking than the many surrounding Lesser's. I didn't get as good view of the Redpolls today as I did on Wednesday when I had my first Mealy. Also saw a Brambling at the feeding station at the visitor centre and also 2 fly over Whooper Swan.

The End.

Until next time, Foghorn out!
