ratattack 111 Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Any around now will be resident birds, the ones from the continent don't arrive until first moon in november usually as the weather will be colder on the continent freezing the boggy ground they feed on.

farlap 19 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 we moniter them here in Devon and not seen any yet, day or night.....and even if we did its definitely too early to be (morally) shooting them in their newly migrated and light condition .....give them a chance to get here, get rested and fed.
