0730-1100hrs
Cold > NE 2-3 with early frost. Bright sunshine and blue skies from 0845, but poor visibility to south with murky haze. Wind dropped late morning. A disappointing morning mover wise, which was expected in the NE wind. Plenty Swallows low down in the villages on the way home but none over the watch point.

Moving Birds:
MEADOW PIPIT 9 > NW
ALBA WAG 1 > NW
GOLDFINCH 4 > W very high
REED BUNTING 2 > W very high
1 possible WHIMBREL > NE fast flying, slim shortish bill but no call.
(this bird also picked up by DCB at watchpoint).

OTHER:
2 Willow Warbs
1 Cormorant
1 Common Sand
1 Dunlin4 Greylag
1 Oddball white goose.
