Very local twitching!

On Tuesday 24th October, a message from Rob Wil, as the light was fading I drove to Marine Parade and walked down the steps by the Oval to the first shelter belt. Where the "takking" of the fantastic Dusky Warbler could be heard. James B quickly joined us but the warbler was proving very elusive, Rob & I walked over to the north side and I saw the bird dart dowm to Alexanders on the deck before flying back again. When we walked back James had had some good views from south end. News then broke of a Siberian Stonechat at Corton OSW, we made it just before dusk and saw the fantastic Siberian Stonechat feeding from on top of a bush in the middle of the compound flying up catching insects then returning to its perch. A Robin chased it and we last saw along the northern fence line as darkness descended.
