Another Redstart

Mainly cloudy, 22°, light SW.

An interesting young Common Redstart on the hill today attracted Tony W, Alan and myself up there to take a look.

In the prevailing light conditions it was a rather grey looking bird reminding Tony of a Flycatcher initially.

Never really got very close to us but seen in the middle distance was undoubtedly a Redstart. That makes it 3 on the hill at the moment and 5 in total this autumn passage.

A single Lesser Blackback Gull and a Herring Gull flew overhead late afternoon.
