Maryport

Been in the Maryport / Carlisle area this week ,  its a large area of farmland with many fields left for stubble. A flock of 50 Skylark , 5 Yellowhammer , 2 Reed Buntings , 20 Chaffinch and the odd tree Sparrow was the pick of the farmland species. At least 5 different Med Gulls and the bird of the week was a winter plumage Ruff foraging with Starlings in a recently manured field. Small numbers of Pinkfeet and Whoopers also about.
