By November in the UK, autumn bird migration is more or less over. Our summer visitors, such as warblers, chats and flycatchers, are far to the south in Africa. Meanwhile, many winter visitors – mostly waders and wildfowl – have arrived from their breeding grounds to the north and east.
Nevertheless, as the British Trust for Ornithology’s regular Migration Blog reports, there are still plenty of birds on the move, with specific weather conditions either holding them back or boosting their travels.
