This afternoon we did a good circular walk, down to Kings Fleet and the river wall, along towards the ferry, across the golf course on the Tomlin wall and back to Terry's. Three and a half miles as measured on Google Earth!

It was a lovely afternoon, considering the time of year, very mild and pleasantly sunny. Not much in the bird line though. There were several parties of cormorants heading across towards Loompit Lake, and a flock or two of golden plover and lapwing on the salt marsh. The tide was rising and pushing the redshank around, not that they need much excuse to make a fuss.
I had been hoping for a harrier, or maybe even a short-eared owl but not today.
