A day as expected. Fly Flatts

 

                                        Theres always the Barnacle geese to fall back on

                                              Plenty Curlews in the area
                                   2 ad LBBs on the water was unusual.

Terrible conditions today with a very light SW>2 turning NE>3 mid afternoon. Hazy visibility with full sun and 30% cloud at 19 degrees.
                                                     As expected in the conditions, Fly Flatts came to a stand still today with very little to report. Ringed Plovers were down to 3 and very flighty due to a Merlin in the morning and canoes on the water late afternoon. Interesting to see how they lost the Merlin each time by flying up very high and nearly out of sight with the Merlin sticking to a lower altitude.
                                            The Robin Rocks held 2 Wheatear whilst 2 adult Lesser Black Backed were on the water. 
                   A good drop in temperature tomorrow down to 8 degrees with a light NE turning E which may improve things hopefully.
