Arriving...and lots of it!
Busy Weekend just passed as my Family helped me celebrate my Birthday. Paid a couple of visits to Duff where there is standing water now, which will remain. Far more on Bubwith Ings but that will fluctuate with the rainfall. The Wildfowl haven't moved in yet...but they will. We did see some distant groups disturbed by shooting over the adjacent Farmland. A Barn Owl was an unfortunate consequence as were 4 Pintail. All safe.
The 2 Great White Egrets are still about and show well on occasions. Haydn and I had 2 Water Rails showing briefly on the scrape. The striking Marsh Harrier is still present but there was no sign of the pale Buzzard.
In the Village there is a Shorelark and 7 Snow Buntings along the Cliff to the North. I set off this morning but it was a tad greasy so "discretion was the better part of valour" on this occasion! I'll try again later...
