Eastern Spinebills in winter
Hi Kev and Kay
Well the Spinebills are spreading out this winter!
We just had one at Abberton for the first time in six years, and a delightful surprise it was too.
Is there the making of a pattern here? Our Eastern Spinebill records are:
1988 June
1991 November!!
1993 June
1997 May
2001 April, May
2006 May, June
2012 June (13th)
All records April to June at 3 to 6 year intervals - apart from one abberant holiday maker in the summer of 1991.
All the best
Bill
