After a couple of days inside it was nice to get out in the fresh air, c900 Brent were on the arable and c300 Lapwing and loads of gulls were on the marsh alongside the Approach Rd. Still quite a few Blackbirds and a couple of Redwing around the Badger Sett.

From the hide: 220 Greylag (plus hybrids), 8 Canada Geese, 2 Brent, c160 Teal, 8 Wigeon, 8 Shoveler, 3 Shelduck, 2 Mallard, 2 Blk. T Godwits.

A walk to the 3rd pillbox was made worthwhile by 10 Sanderling with 7 Turnstone on the beach just north of French Point (Sanderling believe it or not being a Haven year tick for me), but from there it went down hill with no sign of the Dartford Warbler and at the furthest point it started to rain, it was a very wet walk back.
