 Camera shy Bluey.

Bit of movement in the shape of southbound 46 Barnacle Geese, 7 Red-throated Diver, 5 Chaffinch, 5 Oyk, 4 Shelduck, 3 Skylark & Yellowhammer with northbound 16 Brent plus a Marsh Harrier that flew out to sea due East looking like it knew exactly what it was doing. The first hint of Yammer passage is right at the end of February, although some springs we record hardly any at all. A walk around the reserve proves that it is migrant less with the highlight being 5 Ringos on the beach plus a single Purp on the groynes at the Butts. A dead Red-throat was on the tideline behind the cottage.
