Another warm day but battered by a strong onshore wind which shook the scope and tripod too much to be of use; two nicely obvious drake Eiders flew west and earlier DH had a Great Northern Diver flying east.
Two Marsh Harriers including good scope views of the male which twice dived at two different post-perching Buzzards, a single drake Pintail, thirty or so Golden Plovers and maybe ten Snipe. Brief highlight was a flight view of a Bittern, my first this winter here (or indeed anywhere), dropping in to 11 Acres. Apparently the Water Pipits were still on the flooded area half wayup the canal path.
No photos today.
