Another wet start today and no sign of any change to the birds on the lagoon. Once the rain stopped the 6 Pintail showed well below the hide and there were signs of Meadow Pipits moving with at least 30 landing on the lagoon shoreline but no Redwing this morning.

Five of the six Pintail 

It was a little more sheltered down towards Black Harry Gate where there were at least 6 Chiffchaff and an obliging Kestrel sat on a fence post.
