Weds 24th March - Morning

6:45 > 7:15
8c drizzle then rain.

Little Ringed Plover numbers increase to four. A bird still in Godwit Corner, possibly last nights bird while three more flew in together around 7:00am, landed briefly by the spit then circled the site looking for suitable habitat. Still flitting about when I left ten minutes later.

Two Oystercatcher at the mouth of the Inlet, which is rapidly draining and the usual resident Green Sandpiper. Goosander with two drake remain. A pair of Great Crested Grebe, a small flock of Tufted Duck and a few Teal dotted about were the other birds of note.

No sign of last nights Redshank nor any Fieldfare.

On a farming note the first lambs are dotted about.
