A visit to the Spit and North Wall proved largely uneventful....a few small flyover pigeon flocks, several groups of Starlings moving west, Lapwings, distant Golden Plovers and the usual Cettis Warbler in the reed bed. A group of Redpolls flew east, calling.
There have been recent reports of a Black Redstart in the churchyard so as the clouds gathered and the wind 'got up' I decided to have a quick look...and sure enough it was feeding on the ground by the church entrance. Very quickly it shot up to the top of the roof and just as the rain started I managed to point the camera in its direction and got a couple of record shots...just to prove it was still there!
