I'm a little confused about the redpolls. The note says "Also a few definate (definite for those who like spelling ) 'lessers' in the flock" Surely we would...
Hi Bob, Hope you're well. Probably of little help but the only recent wild swan reports I've seen were 4 Bewick's Swan on the Thames at Rainham on 4th of ...
Tony As I understand it from e-mails I've seen and discussions with Howard, the suggestion is that the vast majority of the redpoll flock at Thorndon are...
I haven't seen the flock personally, but Jim (and other observers) are of the opinion that the flock does consist almost entirely of Common/Mealy Redpolls -...
Tony Most of the Redpolls currently residing at Thorndon CP do appear to be 'Common' ie 'Mealy' Redpolls. I've been a few times now (firstly under the guidance...
And while we're (rightly) being pedantic, the second (or upper) wing-bar on the Thorndon Arctic Redpoll would have been formed by white tips to the median...
Tony One observer (Jim Woods) has been meticulously studying the large redpoll flock in Thorndon Park all winter and has seen varying numbers of redpolls, ...
Stick with it Dom, ours have only just been discovered by parties of Goldfinch and Chaffinch, with Starlings and House Sparrows - no longer so vulgar(is) or ...
Not quite sure what's going on but over the last few days Yahoo has been acting a bit weird. Both Dom and Marks most recent messages were held for approval as...
I saw part of the flock several weeks ago, about 100 bird of these I was only able to grill about ten birds of which at least three were Mealy, one appeared to...
Many thanks for all the answers to my query. I guess that because I was at one time muddled with the names "Common" and "Lesser" I was a little concerned that...
Bob We are quite happy (both LNHS and SBC) to receive records of Whooper/Bewick's Swan so please 'bother the scorers' by submitting the record. It helps if...
Need to drop my daughter over at SE London this a.m. and will then be hooking up with Andrew Self for a pop at these redpolls. If anyone has any gen or hears...

Met Andrew Self at Thorndon CP at something just prior to 11:00hrs (the time the Arctic Redpoll was confirmed yesterday I believe) and we were joined by Steve...
Never visited this site before and printed off a map which didn't specify the Lion Gate. Road name etc... would be appreciated. Probably have to leave to Sat...
I spent about four and a half hours at Thorndon, arriving just after 8 am. The largest flocks I managed to connect with in that time consisted of 50-60 birds...
Lion Gate is just to the east of Hartswood Road which runs south from Brentwood. It's the main entrance where the visitor centre is, drive past the centre to...
