Visible Bird Migration - Burton In Kendal from 0715hrs to 1030hrs 

All movement South/South East unless stated otherwise. Wind: SW 6-8mph, 4c, 55%, 17200m vis, 992mb pressure. Another good day especially with the Chaffinch, but noticed today that very few where taking their normal routing but instead going further back East as though they were along the top of Hutton Roof and as such must have missed hundreds. Everytime I looked over that way there were large parties crossing, but very difficult to count.
