Brief TH

Light poor so no photos.

A Hobby from the car over Western Way was a decent start to the day.
Defintely Autumnal on arrival with some big black clouds scudding away north west of the reserve.

Only bothered with MSH and, naughtily, didn't pick up a ticket for the first time. Five Ruffs performed well although the Little Stint was not as obliging. Everything was upset twice by a passing juvenile Sparrowhawk which made a brief pass at a Teal. Two Kingfishers chased each other over south scrape and about a dozen Snipe popped in and out of cover. The Water Rail was present but not particularly obliging.

Finally a single Red Admiral was blown west.
