Weather: SE 0/1 mist

Lapwing on the shore

An accurate count today found a new peak number for the Brent Geese of 189, we expect even higher numbers as the winter arrives. No sign of any thrush movement this morning although a female Reed Bunting was very welcome. A Lapwing came down on the shore. Still only 2 Purple Sandpipers present, and today there were 11 Bar-tailed Godwits on the east hoyle.

Our resident rabbit still survives in its usual place near the 5 barred gate
