A brilliant morning weather wise with 40% cloud in otherwise clear skies and sunshine. Some milky haze over the moor on a light SW>3 at 3 degrees.
First bird, as driving down the track was the unusual visit , at this site, of a Pink Footed Goose, probably the Cold Edge bird. No new waders in as yet but Common Sandpiper due within a week, closely followed by Dunlin. A good year for Redshank with at least 8 present along with 6 Oystercatchers and several Curlew and Lapwing.
Very little sky movement other than 3 LBB and 4 Herring gulls >NE whilst the resident pale phase Buzzard was in the haze over the west moor looking like an Osprey until I got a better view of it.
Herons are still on frog patrol with 3 present whilst Meadow Pipit numbers are rising and my first 2 Linnet of the year. Otherwise the usual Canada, Greylag and Mallard on the water. All quiet in the Nolstar fields.
Full sun tomorrow on a very light SE at 4 degrees. Hope this doesn't mean fog.
