For most of Sunday, we weren't sure if we'd see any starlings, because of fog. In fact, it was so dense that for much of the day we couldn't even see the nearest edge of Holywell Lake. As the starlings usually roost on the far side, prospects didn't look promising, but right at the end of the afternoon, visibility improved just enough to see the entire reedbed.
Sadly, a similar number of starlings came to roost as on the previous night, about 500.
Those who were walking the trails earlier in the day found siskins, goldcrests, fieldfares and redwings, and at least one female (or immature) smew.
