River back up to normal winter levels, new workings with a bit more water in them.
2 or 3 Green Sand about all to show for a long walk with the dog.

The lottery winners from last night in Oxford.
10th time we’ve seen them, and now they’re doing stadiums.
Like watching your kids grow up.

No Woodlark today in the fields near Shefford. 25 Skylarks, 10 Red Kite and a decent view of South Bedfordshire from the top of the ridge #bedsbirds #ukbirding

Hardly pulse racing stuff at the new workings North this late afternoon.
10 Shoveler, a Greg, 12 Teal and 2 Wigeon.
But the water levels are on the rise.
High pitched kee-kee-kee from the poplars had me frantically looking for movement in the top of the 🌳, but no 🎲.

Wander (and then a run) round Newport Pagnell as my vans getting new 🛞.
Good to see the hometown hero is rewarded with this awesome mural #LeahWilliamson

2 Green Sands and a few Redwings on a beautiful walk with the doggy. Along the Nene through the new workings.

Decent morning in Norfolk. Dusky Warbler, Shore lark, Yellow Browed.
Wasn’t keen on the field craft or a lot of the nonsense from various people at the Humes warbler site. (Dull coloured bird seen, but 2 YBWs calling).
82 species in total though 💪

Shore lark just east of the east bank, Cley on the sparse dune scrub on the shingle ridge.

Ludlow with old Uni friends.
Very very nice. Goosander on the river.
Humphrey the dog, looking very intelligent.

Another long walk with the dog this morning. Greenshank calling at the new workings and a couple of Kingfishers.
Little bit underwhelming
