NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.

Sun and south westerlies !! Fly Flatts.

             2 Barnacles present
             Not know if its the yellow ringed bird as yet.

                    2 white Greylags bred at TMR

A good morning if you,re walking on Blackpool front or in the garden but not if you,re at Fly Flatts with wall to wall blue skies, sunshine and a SW>3. Very poor visibility with the hazy sun and glare off the water.
                   As I got out of the car I thought I had 2 Whoopers on the water at the north end but turned out to be 2 white Greylags bred at TMR last year from previously bred partial whites.
A small brown duck flushed from under the banking as I walked on which was a surprise to be a female Wigeon, a rare winter duck this year along with Goldeneye. It flew low over the water to the north end not to be re located.
                                             Plenty Curlew back now and Lapwings holding territory whilst 3 Oystercatchers were around the boat yard.
Pointless sky watching in the conditions so an early finish and back to base.
