Richards Pipit at Newport Pagnell Bucks

I've been watching reports of the Richards Pipit that seems settled at Bury field, Newport Pagnell since its first sighting on 17th February and with little to do today I made the solo run up the M1 hoping it would hang around for another day and I wasn't disappointed finding it feeding in the furthest corner from the road I'd parked in. It was settled but liked it's own space and didn't allow a close approach so my images are heavily cropped record shots. I watched it for an hour or so where it occasionally kept company with around ten Meadow Pipits but it preferred it's own space away from them most of the time. Sparrowhawk, Red Kite and Buzzard flew over and Skylarks sang to add interest to the visit. I think it's five years since I've seen a Richards Pipit so glad I made the one hour trip for this one eventually.
