A mish mash of weather this morning with early drizzle followed by a mix of short periods of sun and very dark clouds on a moderate WSW>4-5 at 6 degrees.
A fresh overnight fall of another wave of Wheatears was apparent with a minimum count of 14 just at the south end. Otherwise another morning of the same with Common Sandpipers, Redshanks, Oystercatchers etc with 4 Pied Wagtail and several Meadow Pipits in the compound along with a pair of Stonechat by the lagoon.
Just 2 LBB and a single Herring gull on the water as well as Mallards, Greylags and Canada geese whilst 2 Kestrel were in the air as well as a distant Buzzard hovering in the wind before attempting to drop onto prey but ending up with nothing as it settled on a fence post.
