| 1 | The figure available in 2000 is 610-910 for both the months of September and October. Fraser & Rogers (2002) | |||||||||
| found from exact dates for 1,611 individuals, that 1,277 (79.3%) were recorded in the last ten days of September and | ||||||||||
| 240 (14.9%) in the first week of October. So this leaves 94 for the remainder of October. | ||||||||||
| The Sussex Ornithological Society reported preliminary totals of 378 for September and 50 for October. For a working figure the total | ||||||||||
| for September and October combined has been split roughly 5:1 giving 510-760 for September and 100-150 for October. | ||||||||||
| 2 | Where a range is given for the count for a month, the midpoint of the range is used in calculating the average. | |||||||||
