Note:
  • The morning started dry but cold. The first hour, large groups of Lapwings were flying to SW and WSW. But also Redwings were flying in large groups. I counted 283 birds under which a group of 40 and a group of 180. Later, when I was riding home through the rain, I saw a group of more then 300 Redwings flying to SW.
