Amazing point blank views of 13 twite in the horse paddock below Bay View Garden Centre this morning SD48026871. Came to within 3-4m of me watching from the tidal road. In my opinion this is easily the best place in our area for getting close views of twite as they often come to this road or even inside the paddock to drink from puddles or scavenge the tidal debris. Also 28 Skylark, 3 Linnet in the same area and a near miss from a male sparrowhawk targeting the twite.
