Got up this morning and had a nice full English in the B&B, and headed back towards Wolverton triangle. I gave it another good hour, but there was no sign of the pheasant. Moving on, I stopped at Flitcham Abbey farm to try and photograph some Bramblings, but again the weather turned, and it was hammering it down when I arrived. I did see about six Bramblings in the nearby hedges, but there was no sign of the Little owls I was hoping to see.

After this, I stopped off at Tottenhill gravel pits, where I soon connected with the winter plumaged Black necked grebe.
