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.

                                                  Single Common Sandpiper



                                                  2 Redshank present
                                                just the one Wheatear today

                                                                  Redshank.

No improvement in the weather today with a very light SE>2 with clear blue skies and sunshine at 
1 degree rising to 10 degree mid afternoon and looking about the same for tomorrow.
                                                            Having said that there was a slight improvement of birds but the skies were still empty.
A Snipe flushed from the SE corner landing over on Fill Belly Flat whilst a single Common Sandpiper was working its way along the west bank as well as 2 Redshank.
                               The pair of Ringed Plovers were in the boatyard picking worms from the short grassed area along with a pair of Pied Wagtail.
Nothing on the water other than 2 LBB gulls and a single Herring along with the usual Geese and Mallards.
                            The Goldie flock was in the Nolstar field late morning but missing late afternoon.
