Glutton for punishment, Fly Flatts.

 Another very windy morning with a strong WSW>6 gusting 7 at 10 degrees with a mix of cloud and sunshine.
      Near un-bird able this morning with the strong wind making it difficult to even hold the bins steady, never mind the camera and scope.
   Its looking like the majority of Redshank have now bred and moved on with just a single Common Sandpiper found as well as yesterdays Ringed Plover, along with the usual Curlew, Lapwing and Oystercatchers.
     The sky was full of Swifts along with a few Swallows whilst a distant Buzzard was high over the moor as well as a Kestrel.
    A lot of activity at Slade and the Flat Moor this morning with lots of people, vehicles and camera crews with still several chicks around ?
     A sunny day tomorrow starting at 12 degrees and, fingers crossed, a light >WNW.
