A much better day weather wise with 100% cloud cover on a cool SE>3 a.m. then a moderate E>4 in the afternoon.
With the sun out of the way birds were much livelier with ,once again, all the action in the SE corner pools whereas a check along the east and north shoreline from the NW corner only produced a few Common Sandpipers along with 68 Lesser Black Backed and 3 Herring gulls whilst 2 Black Headed flew over >E.
Back at the ponds Dunlins were now up to 6 with one very light gingery bird partially hidden which had me thinking Ruff until I got the scope on it. The long staying Ringed Plover is still around the ponds as well as a Lapwing with 2 very young late chicks whilst a Common Sandpiper has a young chick in the lagoon.
Still no Scoter arrival this morning and wind surfers present this afternoon but I,m expecting some to appear this coming week. If they do you,ll be the first to know.
