Bramblings

On Wednesday, around the time of finding the RED-THROATED LOON, a huge flock of BRAMBLINGS dropped in to some trees and shrubs close to our watchpoint before proceeding to the edge of the reservoir to drink….  We estimated over 500 in this single flock – an awesome sight.  As in the UK, Bramblings are winter visitors to Beijing and right now they are streaming through..  beautiful birds.
