Hi David

A few additions from later (perhaps around 8.30?)

1 Great-crested grebe

One flock of c200 fieldfares south west and a few redpolls over

2 Greylag geese south over Meadow Head

Didn't see the common sand!

On the route there/back there were a few fieldfares around Bonfire Hill and Liver Hill and redwings at Greenfold. Stonechats at Edge Yate (2), Greenfold (2) and Liver Hill (1) as well as at Clowbridge. Still a smattering of meadow pipits here and there but no big flocks
