Bitter cold and windy. Fly Flatts.

 

                                    White Horses on the water


                                    Little Ringed Plover still present


                                    Usual Common Sandpipers
                                    as well as Redshanks




                                    and Dunlins






                                        1 of 4 Buzzard >NE
                                    Gulls getting more popular

Another bitter cold morning with what felt like the coldest morning of the year up there with a biting NW>5 gusting >6 at 3 degrees. Clear skies and sunshine but clouding over mid watch.
    Near enough the same as yesterday less the Ringed Plover which failed to show but more sky movement with 4 Buzzards up together drifting >NE as well as a steady flow of Herring and LBB gulls also >NE whilst Swifts and Swallows headed directly >N.
    Just a single Wheatear this morning along with 2 Red Legged Partridge plus the usual species.
A morning of cloudy sunshine with cloud thickening late morning with a chance of light showers on a moderate westerly starting off at a milder 6 degrees.
