Much better conditions this morning at Fly Flatts without the strong wind. A foggy start which soon cleared to leave 20% cloud and sunshine on a light WSW>2 at 14 degrees.
The south shore held 3 Ringed Plover whilst a walk on the west bank produced at least another 2 though scoping was difficult with the amount of heat shimmer off the warm mud. No joy with Greenshanks today.
A new wave of Meadow Pipits has arrived making the south shore alive with them whilst the Kestrel family of 6 watch on from the banking but making no attempts toward them.
Just 2 LBB and 4 Black Headed gulls today with at least 5 Wheatear and a pair of Stonechat collecting food for their young.
On the way home, a quick stop to capture 2 adult and 1 juv Buzzard in the air together.
We've had the gales and the fog and now we're due for the 3rd of the dreaded weather with a hot week forecast although its showing cloudy sunshine for morning on a very light sou'wester kicking off at 16 degrees.
