East Wind!

A bright sunny morning on the peninsular was deceptive as the wind was bitingly cold. With nothing passing off shore I had a wander around the beach. A Hare flushed in front of me and disappeared among the sea containers, the male Rubicola Stonechat was still present on the Gorse as was 3 Black Redstarts and a Wheatear, 2 Skylarks, 4 Meadow Pipits and 5 Pied Wagtails were also present.

The red head Goosander and 3 Goldeneye could be seen on a wind swept ARC from the causeway. The 2 Cattle Egrets were in the fields south of Brickwall Farm. At Scotney the drake Scaup was by the double bends per GH.
This evening at the Egret roost, 26 Little Egrets, 3 Great White Egrets and 2 Cattle Egrets came in to roost.
