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.

Windy and wet, Fly Flatts

 Dark, damp, windy and cold was the order of the day at Fly Flatts this morning, after overnight fog, with a moderate to strong ENE>4 gusting 5 at 11 degrees with full cloud and light drizzle.
     A very blustery walk on the west bank this morning with little reward, other than a single Ringed Plover on the north shore along with 19 LBB and 8 juv Black Headed gulls.
    Only half a dozen Canadas left now on the water along with 2 juv Tufted whilst several Canadas were in the fields along Cold Edge Road.
  A single Wheatear was on the south shore along with 4 juv Pied Wagtails whilst a single Kestrel and a few Mipits were present.
    Cloudy sunshine for morning with the same moderate to strong ENE at 12 degrees.
