08.01.08




the warren, 0830, wind W-SW force 7-8.

Very windy again this morning so watched the sea for half an hour, didn't see much, gannet, oycs, fukmars,auks(some razors) kittis, great crested grebe and 2 rock pipits on the sea wall.

I moved into the bushes but there wasn't much about a chiff in the trees and goldcrest calling.
i walked to the bight and sat to find the surf scoter but had no luck. i did see a slavonian grebe feeding.

A mixed flock of linnet and skylark were feeding in the bight on the high tide line.

I drove along the powderham rd but again missed the cattle egret(i think it has now gone!) but i did find a huge flock of chaffinch with linnet and brambling amoungst them.
