A pleasant morning to be on the tops at Fly Flatts with just 30% cloud, mainly to the west, with plenty blue sky and sunshine on a light SSE>3 at 7 degrees.
Once again, Woodpigeons were piling through following the western ridge >S along with other movers comprising of Mipit, Alba Wagtail, Golden Plover and several gulls and a single Peregrine, which was probably local.
Gulls were more active than usual at this site with LBB, Herring, Common and Black Headed, some moving through whilst others were on the water.
Very little present but 2 Grey Partridge were a rare sighting here, possibly being flushed from the Red Legged Partridge shoot at TMR, whilst 3 Red Grouse are now something of a rarity at Fly Flatts.
Hope any upland birders have made the best of today as tomorrow is back to earth with fog showing for most of the day on a light SE. Looking to the far east from Foxhill there is already a massive fog bank building over the North sea.
