Pretty awful weather this morning, very grey and wet. However dogs have to be walked, so did the round walk of the railway sidings and The Lode.
Duration:1hr 10mins
Number of species recorded: 25
Highlight: Little Egret on the bank of the Lode looking very miserable in the rain, the Jack Dee of the bird world.
Still haven't had the high numbers of tits and allied birds in the hedge in the area that I've had in previous years. Largest flock so far only 16 with 11 Long Tailed Tits and the rest Blue Tit. Only 1 Chaffinch, but good numbers of Wren. Great Spotted Woodpecker showing well.
By the time we got home the rain had set in so plan to spend the rest of the day preparing school work!
