From Roger Wilkinson:
A couple of things from yesterday most amazingly between 10 and 10:30pm there were at least 3 flocks of common scoter flew E over our place in Hawksworth calling. According to people on twitter they were also heard all the way across from west coast to E coast. Presumably some of the 50,000 wintering birds from Liverpool bay:
This twitter thread gives a picture of the passage over wider area
In 2011 a flock of 26 males and one female landed on Thornton Moor Reservoir and were seen and photographed by Brian Vickers.
Shipley Glen
A mixed flock of about 150 Thrushes. Estimated to be 75% Redwing and 25% Fieldfare in the fields/trees behind Brackenhall Farm.
Paul King
Eldwick Village - small flock of 9 Fieldfare.
