Cold and showery


Quite a miserable day, with a cold wind and rough showers.

The plan was to stay out and do the Stewartby roost, but my windscreen wipers decided to pack up mid-way through the afternoon. Arse.

Gypsy Lane East - another or the same White Wag was showing well, but again numbers of pipits and wagtails had dropped off significantly with only one or two of each. Seven or so Sand Martins were around the new cliffs in the quarry.

A look again at Octagon Farm produced very few wagtails indeed - only 20 or so. There was a nice Little Ringed Plover on the hard-standing though.

Stewartby Lake and Brogborough were quiet before I was forced to retire for the afternoon with windscreen wiper failure...
