november walk

I am trying to devise a crossbill hunting walk for November and am recce'ing likely woods. I don't want to post details in the field trip section until I'm sure they are likely to be present! They are highly mobile until they find a big crop of cones at the ripe stage so bear with me please until late Oct. Likely location will be mid Cere unless some-one lets me know of a mob elsewhere!

On oat stubble adjacent to Cors Caron: 31 stock doves, over 100 crows and jackdaws, and a similar number of chaffinches with one (prob young male) yellowhammer.
