Another spectacular showing of this pre-roost gathering over the Westfields area of Newbury. Still not sure where they are going down but possibly into conifers between Craven rd and St John's Ave. Numbers difficult to estimate of course but prob between 7-10k. Numbers have increased over last few days. Started coming in at before 6pm. Last seen at about 18:40. SU4666.
