Ring Ouzel

Bits and bobs over the last week or so:

The highlight was a flyover Ring Ouzel on the 28th; I was just packing up ready to go (fairly pedestrian up to that point) when it suddenly came in from the east, not vocal at all, but got my bins on it; nice to get a vis mig one; left in a westerly direction. Otherwise, finches have included siskin and the first autumn Brambling; mipits are obvious in numbers, with a few tree pipits still.
As September closes the winds have picked up this evening, gusting from the southwest. Could well shake things up - with a chance of an American rarity?
