Another pleasing weather morning at Fly Flatts with full cloud on a light SW>2 at 12 degrees and light rain throughout.
                      Much quieter on the waders with a partial clear out of  Dunlin and Ringed Plover with just the breeding pair of Dunlin found along with the original pair of Ringed Plover plus one juv.
Still 2 Curlew and 2 Redshank present along with 4 Oystercatchers plus a single juv.
               Busy skies this morning with, once again, swarms of Swallow and Swift plus 8 LBB gulls whilst the highlight was a family party of 6 Raven over, heading >S and being mobbed by Crows, Curlews and Lapwings.
