Been out cutting the rush in field 2 today it is a slow job doing a double pass but once done it is looking well for the next three weeks till the rush grows again. we till treat the regrowth in october if the weather allows reduce the rush.
a lot of meadow pipits feeding on the fly attracted by the cattle that are aftermath grazing. Two buzzards following today they have not learnt that I am not cutting so low as the silage cutters so no carrion but did spy one with a frog or toad today.
Not a vast number of birds but a few of note 2 blacktailed godwits a ruff and half a dozen ring plovers on the first salt marsh scrap as you go north well after high tide.
