1 adult twite with 4 juvs and another adult with 2 juvs were present at an undisclosed location yesterday. Sad to say that there are perhaps only 1 or 2 prs left at this site and this may be the last site in Lancashire with any breeding birds. There have been none recorded all year at Cant Clough Res in Burnley, which was formerly a stronghold for twite
A colour ringed twite (see attached pic), that was seen with 2 juvs in Rossendale this summer, has been reported at Blakeney Point in north Norfolk this weekend amongst a flock of 33 birds. Good to know it's still going strong
