Not the nicest of days today with scudding clouds and a brisk westerly that brought in sharp showers and a drop in temperature. Swifts descended and were zooming around all day while small numbers of Martins and Swallows headed into the wind.
Just six Whimbrel today and none of the waders seen on Monday afterwork but Reed warblers were clearly audible from the centre and I suspect more have come in while a female Marsh Harrier gliding past the centre window prompted Tony Orwell into a brisk trot to get outside and take some great shots... note the stready hand.... ;o)
