Freezing start

A pre sunrise walk was very cold with the Northerly breeze, but at LFGP 2 Little-ringed Plover and 2 Redshank and the usual Red Crested Pochard showing well.

Oystercatcher at Sandford, but nothing much else, so onto Lavell's where 2 Garden Warbler were new in and singing and being chased by Blackcap next to John's bench.

The 3 Shoveler still on the scrape and then my first Common Tern for the year, over towards BSL, puts me on 105 now.

A lunchtime skywatch yielded nothing really, just 2-3 Sparrowhawk, 5-6 Buzzard and Red Kite, two groups of 2 then 4 Swallow headed into the now NE but just as chilly wind.
