A better start to the morning but still a cool NW>3 at 12 degrees with 60% cloud and some sunshine.
    First signs of small passerine movement with Willow Warblers and Chiffchaffs around the single tree and lagoon area whilst a charm of around 30 Goldfinch were on the thistles as well as Meadow Pipit numbers building up.
    A pair of Common Sandpipers were watching over 3 chicks with the long staying Ringed Plover nearby. Very little in the sky with a single Kestrel, 1 LBB gull and a Curlew very high and >W in migration mode.
  A cloud and sunshine morning tomorrow with a slight chance of showers on a light Westerly starting at 15 degrees.
