Hazy, milky skies this morning with a cold 5 degree >SE brightening as the morning wore on.
The skies were strangely empty and by 0930 hrs I had seen one grounded Redwing and a Kestrel and it hardly livened up before I left.
Once again the afternoon provided more birds with a good gull move all >SW along with a few other species on the move. The Redwing was by the lagoon this morning and this afternoon was re located by the track checking out the Nyjer seed along with 2 Stonechat.
No gulls on the shoreline this evening, possibly due to the big move of Herrings and Lessers throughout the afternoon.
By the end of the afternoon watch rain was moving in and fog was on the sidelines looking likely to move in overnight.
