A Hare running along a track towards me on the marsh 
Then it stopped for a pee
Having a look around
Then ran towards me again
Stopped for another look around
Then came right up to me. Absolutely magical!
 
Black-tailed Godwits on Hayfield 1
I checked out the House Martin colony at Brett's, I could only see 4 nests but could be more, I need to get better access. Todays walk around the reserves as expected fairly quiet in the strong wind, a secretive drake Garganey on hayfield 3, 100+ Swifts with smattering of Swallows. House and Sand Martins and 3 Hobbys of note. Once again with virtually no islands Burrowes was somewhat barren. A distant Red Kite flew NE along the coast.  
Common Gull surrounded by dummies at Christmas Dell
Great-crested Newt on the return trail
This Delicate was the highlight of last nights moth catch
