We had much better views of the Lapland Bunting today, though it was still difficult to find in the scope. It was in a stubble field with Skylarks and a couple of Reed Buntings, and in all the time we watched (for about an hour and a half), the flock didn't fly once, and without a scope, I don't think you would even have known that there was a bird (any bird!) in the field. But once you got onto it, and if you stayed on it, it did show quite well at times.
Also today, about 50 Pink-feet over and nine Grey Partridge.

Another great day at Martin Mere, the highlights for me being these two adult spoonbills on the pond outside the United Utilities...
