09:45	Multiple sightings of small flocks of skylarks, reed buntings and yellowhammers, in the field just to the West of Widbrook Common. It's impossible to say with certainty how many were there, as most of the time they were hidden in the long stubble / grass in the field. There may well have been many more than the ten that I am reporting.
