NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.

A quieter morning, Fly Flatts.

 

                                    Just a single Ringed Plover







Again, perfect weather conditions at Fly Flatts with full cloud and a cold light E>3 at 12 degrees. Mist blanking the tops of the turbines early on but soon cleared.
    Much quieter today, wader-wise, with just a single Ringed Plover in the NW corner by the inlet with the other Ringed Plovers and Dunlin not found.
     A count of 78 LBB and 9 Black Headed were on the NE shore whilst 2 of the newly fledged Tufted were back on the water.
    A pair of Stonechat were down by the feeding station along with several Mipits but otherwise a quiet morning with nothing overhead other than a small count of  Swallows >S.
  Another light easterly for morning with full cloud and a possibility of light rain and fog at 13 degrees.
