Monday 2nd March 2015


Cold & windy morning with no grounded migrants noted on site although 2 Jackdaw flew south & at least one Firecrest is still with us. 115 Red-throated Diver north is quite probably more than the grand total noted so far this year with others probably missed as not starring out continuously. Also noted south bound 4 Grey Plover, 2 Brent, Shelduck & Common Scoter plus north bound 9 Brent. Despite the bleak wintry conditions this Magpie nest just keeps getting bigger and bigger as they add more sticks to it - if it gets much larger the Tamarisk it is in may not be able to support it.
