A nice healthy morning at Fly Flatts with a cold NW>3 at 13 degrees and 50% cloud with sunshine.
             The shoreline was alive with waders this morning but still struggling to get a different wader species other than the usuals. Dunlins were back in force as well as Common Sandpiper, Redshank, Ringed Plover and Oystercatcher along with Curlew and Lapwing.
             Swifts were still over the water in swarms but strangely not getting any over Foxhill park as I usually do on an evening. Otherwise just a single Kestrel and a juv Pied Wagtail plus the usual species.

7 Dunlin
4 Ringed Plover
8 Common Sandpiper
4 Redshank
3 Curlew
12 Lapwing, 1 fledged juv
