At 05.00 this morning the sun was shining in a clear blue sky, when I finally decided to get up at 06.30 the clouds had rolled in and the wind was blowing. An uninspiring and cold wander around Dengemarsh produced a few Hobby's and Swifts, a couple of Marsh Harriers, a few Common Terns, Common Whitethroats and a Lesser Whitethroat of note.

At the ARC the Reed Warblers were still working on their nest, a cuckoo was seen but a long way from the nest. Several more Hobby's were hawking over the Tower Pits with a few more Swifts. This afternoon a Marsh Harrier gave uncharacteristic close fly by, on the lake very little apart from many Coot and Mute Swans with a few Great-crested Grebes. A very poor day avian wise considering the date. At least the Plodland moth trap performed a little better but nothing of any note was found in it.
