Chaffinch
Rarely recorded moving through in the Spring, but from evidence here, most return Chaffinch migration is in March. Much more prominent in the Autumn, when movement veers from southerly in September, to predominantly westerly in October. October 2008 was a record month and produced a count of 120 west on 18th October. Chaffinch movement continues during the first half of November.
