The weather was not very inspiring with a blustery southern wind swaying the silver birches and a dash of rain from overcast dull skies made viewing not to great, in fact pretty naff to be honest. Still the dog and I managed a lap of Neumann's just before the light went.
Highlights good numbers of Curlew coming into roost on Ashton's Flash with a fair few Lapwings as well. The wildfowl are loving the deep water and it seems both Neumann's and Ashton's are once again going to be well full into the Spring.
The current view from Bund Hide...will the reedbeds join up?, watch this space.
The feeding station to the west of Bund Hide has yet to attract a bird!! there's time
So day one ends with a measly 27 species but remember it's a marathon not a sprint.
The weekend should see a big boost....
#PWC - 27 species and 27 points
