Inner Marsh Farm. 5th March


A view from the Hide.


Teal.


Black-tailed Godwit.

Sunny again this morning, so we headed back towards IMF, we arrived about 8.30. From the hide we saw a Hen Harrier gracefully gliding low across the far marsh. On the pool in front of us we saw 3 Ruff, 2 Spotted Redshank,and about 24 Golden Plover, still half asleep. There was also at least 86 Black-tailed Godwits,14 Redshank, a very close male Reed Bunting and 7 Buzzards circling overhead.
A Cormorant also made a flying visit, but was immediately ousted by the local Gulls! One O'clock arrived at the same time as the big black clouds and sleet...an improvement on yesterday though....so can't complain...
