Saturday 6th May a.m.
A cloudy morning with a strong Easterly wind blowing making it feel a lot colder than 9°C.The usual mix of Gulls were on the Tarn along with
Tufteds,Canadas,Coots &
Mallards,there was a brood of 4 Mallard chicks and a brood of 5 Coot chicks, the first I've seen this year.Above the water I counted 10
Swallows feeding and also my first local
Swift of the year.It was good to hear the
Skylarks and I caught sight of a couple of them, a
Curlew stopped off briefly and it was great to see a couple of
LRP fly in.
