Leeshaw 1430 hrs with an icy cold NE > 3 and 90 % cloud cover.
A disappointing visit with migrants slow to return with Cuckoo, Little Ringed Plover , Swift and House Martin still missing and my hopes of a feeding Osprey went out the window.
Plenty of the usual species with several Lapwings now holding territory as well as Curlew. Most Oystercatchers have moved on now leaving about 8 as well as 4 Redshank and 2 Common Sandpipers though there is no shoreline showing with the water level to the top.
Will have to wait and see what the coming week brings.
