Sunday, 2 December

Ouse Fen - 2 fem/imm PENDULINE TITS (Richard Thomas et al.). Park just off Overcote Road at its junction with Long Drove: TL370713. If you're comfortable with driving the rough Long Drove road, then park close to Brownshill Staunch at TL371726. Once there, go under the conveyor belt between the tall (Cypress??) trees as noted above. An obvious track crosses the large field beyond the bridalway gate heading towards the canal. The birds were either along the canal or in the smallish area of reeds off to the northwest of this track at ca. TL378737.
