Great Grey Shrike: Cholsey
Great Grey Shrikeagain on the Cholsey side of the Thames at Cholsey marsh late this afternoon but distant as usual, seen from Ferry rd. Also ranging on the "Stoke" side of the Thames.
Most impressive though was a count of 387 Corn Buntings that came into the roost this evening, in fact so many that they were roosting on parts of the marsh that they do not usually use. We estimated that the roost held roughly 2% of the British population of Corn Bunting!
30 to 40 Reed Buntings and a couple of Yellowhammeralso roosting there.

N.B. If visiting this site in the late afternoon, please avoid disturbing the roost site on the marsh, the Shrike can be viewed from Ferry Lane, thank you.
