Into Spring

 1100 - 1230 grey/dull, partly clearing to sun, then rain.  cool NE f1-3


Short visit today.....all last minute....had to get out for some fresh air.....and very nice it was too....even the rain wasnt that bad at the end...

4f/1m Goldeneye still present.....Kingfisher, Little Egret, 1m Pochard, 10 Shoveller, 4 Common Gull, Water Rail....

Meanwhile several Chiffchaff are now seemingly 'in place' for the the season ahead.....several singing....at least 7 found today but probably a few more....the Cettis Warbler has turned up again...or started singing again...in its usual place....I wonder if its a migrant, even if its a few miles....

A nice male Mandarin was found on the way back....these hang out in particular in a couple of places so always worth a check....

4 Buzzards were calling and flying....
