Glorious sunny morning. 2 Skylarks in off then north were the first of the "spring" & 15 Linnet went south. Next to no time spent starring into the sun offshore with 2 Red-breasted Merganser & a Greylag south the only things of note. 9 Magpies socialising together is also a sign of the lengthening days and mild conditions. Finally a Woodcock was flushed early on. PM update: Slavonian Grebe by tugs fromview point car park & 6 Snow Bunting from back beach. Unbelievably a Common Sandpiper was found on the distant dock beach whilst looking for the slav late pm.
