RJF recently recorded several flocks of Jays on the move in northeast France so will this prove a forerunner to an influx from the Continent... as in 1983, when the first birds were detected in late September peaking with large flocks seen arriving in early October, when 300 were seen at Beachy on the 4th alone.
