27th and 28th March
A really rough couple of
days with heavy, driving rain dominating proceedings and a strong, cold
easterly wind blasting it across the island; there was a little window first
thing on the 27th when it wasn’t too bad and birds included a
Merlin, an increase to 115 Golden Plover, 5 Black-tailed Godwits on Gretchen, a
Lesser Black-backed Gull, 2 Woodpigeons and a handful of Thrushes, Robins and
Pipits.
Very little coverage on the 28th but the
handful of birds seen included 2 Woodcock, 3 Robin, 2 Mistle Thrushes, a Song
Thrush and some very soggy looking Redwings and Fieldfares staggering around
the Obs.
Despite the weather, the Tysties are starting to get back in their groove!
