A very nice morning, with no wind it felt a lot warmer than the last few days.  
Bird wise, the Dell held 8+ Blackbird, 3 Song Thrush, a small flock of Goldfinch, House Sparrows, Greenfinch & Chaffinch.
A Ringed Plover (NFY) and a Purple Sandpiper were on the sluice, but otherwise things were much the same. 



The early morning mist cleared slowly but visibility was not good all morning.
From the hide : 150 Greylag, 8 Canada Geese (3 adults 5 hybrid juvs), 250+ Wigeon, c50 Teal, 9 Shelduck, 3 Shoveler, 176 Lapwing, 30+ Golden Plover (on arable), 3 Snipe, 1 BlkWit, 1 Curlew, 1 Buzzard, 2 Kestrel. DW/JH/DC/MR 
The feeders were quite busy on the way out incl. the Coal Tit. DW/DC/MR 

Around 13:20 Dave Cummings had 2 Goldcrest in the trees behind the raised platform.
