Highlands Day 5 : 18th October 2016
For my last morning in the Highlands I took a walk with John Poyner through the Anagach Woods, down to the River and back. The approaches to the woods were full of migrant Blackbirds all flighty and calling, probably ready to go further afield after feeding up at first light. The same was true of the woods but these were mainly full of Redwing who were making a huge noise chattering, and one or two actually still singing – a lovely thing to hear.
