It was in a field about a quarter of a mile east of Gutteridge Wood. Good luck!

Pied Flycatcher today in Regent's Park.

Also I heard something with quite an unfamiliar call, loud and soft. Maybe a Crossbill, I don't know.

White-fronted Goose today, at the Diana Memorial, Hyde Park. I'm struggling to find a fieldfare.

Grasshopper Warbler yesterday, again at Darland's Lake. I'm not that confident that I had ever actually seen one before, anywhere. I have a record from when I was at school, but I'm not sure how reliable that was. And if indeed it was the first that I have ever seen, that puts me in what must be the very unusual position (for a British birder at any rate) of having seen MIddendorff's and Long-billed Grasshopper Warblers before Common Grasshopper Warbler.

Nope. I was once in the Altai mountains at what would have been the right time of year, but probably not the right habitat. And I see there are plenty of winter records from South-east Asia, but I've never connected with it there and it's probably not very conspicuous in winter.

No, never particularly conspicuous, but I've seen 2 or 3 in Thailand (which equals less than 1 in 4 trips.)
