With the wind swinging round to the north east we have lost that little touch of spring time that we had in the middle of last week. A Whimbrel was new in on the foreshore today and a single Grey Plover called mournfully over the marsh at high tide. Two Sand Martins and a Swallow were the only sign of onward migrant movement. Unsurprisingly no butterflies today!
