Willington Ouzel

Went for a walk around Willington early morning looking for Nightingale and Turtle Doves among the summer visitors and was pleasantly surprised to find a female Ring Ouzel on the grass on the southern side of the settling lagoon feeding with two Mistle Thrushes. Made a change from finding them on the southern chalk slopes.
