Leading into the weekend (and because I will not be around to find out any differently!) it looks like the trails are now all passable. Walking boots are still advisable but wellies are not necessary now.
A real gloomy, murky day and a lot colder and stiller than of late. The Ross's Goose was still around but even more elusive than yesterday and the immature male and female Marsh Harriers were both around so that makes three again this week.

At least a dozen Stonechats are on site and a Short-eared Owl was over the Silt Lagoons early in the morning. Plenty of Rock Pipits on the foreshore as usual.
