The suns out & it's windy enough to start drying the place out a bit. Bird wise hard work. Going south 12 Brent, 12 Kitts, 6 Red-throated Diver, 3 Shelduck, 2 Wigeon, Goldeneye & Knot plus heading north 5 Red-throats. Next to nothing seen on a walk around the reserve. Only one Blue Tit on site this morning with the remains of another one freshly plucked at the north end of the observatory compound suggesting that one of the local Sparrowhawks has had a little snack.
