A pleasant morning weatherwise at Fly Flatts with a cool WSW>3 increasing 5 at 12 degrees. 60% cloud with intermittent sunshine.
Nothing unexpected today with 5 adult and 3 juv Oystercatchers along with 3 adult and 1 juv Common Sandpiper plus the long staying Ringed Plover.
Several Swifts and Swallows heading >S whilst Meadow Pipits are now increasing as well as several Goldfinch. A distant Buzzard and Short Eared Owl were high up over the moor but Curlew were noticeable by their absence this morning.
Next target bird now has to be Tern species plus the first returning Wheatears and then hopefully waders near the end of the month.
Cloudy sunshine for morning at 12 degrees with a moderate SSW getting strong by late afternoon.
