Brian Small had an early start this morning and locate a male Ring Ouzel in the set-aside field west of the chippings lay-by. It was showing well at 07:30 when arrived and did so for the next hour, feeding close to the lay-by with 2 Blackbirds, after Marsh Harrier passed over the field it flew to the back hedge and after a few minutes dropped behind the hedge and was lost to view.

Things on the scrape were much the same, with the Spotted Redshank still on view, 54 Avocet & 20 Common Gulls being the highlights. PRD/DW/BH/MR et al.
