Hello everyone,
I am new to this website, but hope some of you might be able to help.
A couple of weeks ago (around late April / beginning of May) I saw a huge flock of around 100 of what I am thinking might have been tree pipits. The habitat was mixed arable / rough pasture / woodland, and the birds were sitting in trees or on wires or flying. They looked like pipits to me, and at first I thought they were meadow pipits, but why are they still in such a big flock at this time of year ... I thought they were supposed to be breeding by now ?
Hope someone can help. I am doing a Volunteer Farmer Alliance Surevy and would love to know what these were.
Thanks !
