Quiet til today

Marek called me 07:30 to say 2 Pintail on Sandford in the thick mist.

I was down there by 09:00 and saw them, along with over 71 Wigeon, 20 Shoveler, 40 Gadwall.

Later getting a couple of okay pics of the Pintail, one was smaller than the other, with less distinct blue on the bill.

Doing a circuit, Mistle Thrush in sailing club car park, the car park field had into double figures of Blackcap moving thru, 3 Chiffchaff, Mipits & Skylark over, Wheatear on a near vent.

At Bittern hide, it was obvious many more ducks have come in, 50-60 Gadwall, 13 more Shoveler, 9 Teal, 2 Snipe also present.

Brian also had 2 Little Egret over Sandford, so a busy morning
