The owner of the property, Giddanmu, has kindly agreed that birders may visit his garden to view the bird, provided they make themselves known to him when they arrive.
When you arrive at the gate at the top of the private drive, (orange circle on the map) open the gate and drive down the road, closing the gate behind you. There is limited parking in the area marked in blue. Do not obstruct the driveway to the adjacent red-bricked house. If this parking area is full, you might ask the owner of Giddamu if you might park in front of the house.
The bird has mainly been seen in the top corner of the garden, circled in red. This is best viewed from just to the left of the open barn, or from above the barn. There is plenty of seed around from the flower meadow seeding which has recently taken place.
You may come across Tom, the gardener, who first reported the bird to Peter Royle yesterday
Please respect Mr Morton’s generosity in allowing access to his property.
Note that at 11:37 there was a negative report on Birdguides.
