1515 hrs on a bright afternoon with only 25 % cloud cover with blue skies and sunshine on a cool NNW>4.
Not as active as this morning but plenty to watch though nothing out of the ordinary.
A check around the feeding station area produced 3 Wheatear but no Ring Ouzel as yet whilst around 50 Mipits were blogging along the banking side.
The highlight was 4 distant Buzzards up together then quartering the moor before gaining height and heading off >SW. One of the birds was a very light phase with several white patches on its mantle and tail.
The 2 Dunlin had moved across to the east bank below the vertical fence where 2 Teal were also present on the waters edge. Sky wise 3 Swallows headed >S and Black Headed gulls moved >NW throughout the watch.
Not oft you see the Coastguard helicopter over Fly Flatts although looking down from above it does look like a coastal estuary.
