A large mixed flock of Y'hammer and Corn Buntings all perched in the trees bordering the lane up from Moulsford (Prep School). Difficult to count, but at least 60 x birds present, the majority of which (40-ish) seemed to be Y'hammers. They were mobile as we approached, flying to and from the rough-grassy strip S of the pylon. Quite a sight. SU586845.
