Third garden record of Clouded Yellow this afternoon, all this month but this was the only one to sit still. Morning #vismig produced 474 Mipits and 2 Swallows #loveautumn #salopobs #ukbirding

Today, the equinox, a good day to remind birders out there, who've been plugging away at their patches for some weeks now, that #vismig is building.

In 1907 British Birds Vol one, issue one, had a wonderful name for you:
You are a 'severe migrationist'.

Good luck. May all your movements be severe👍
