A bit quiet at present!


Little to report during the past few days....weather has been generally dull and overcast with a brisk E or NE breeze. The new breach continues to create a lot of interest from half term holiday makers and any chance of Little Tern breeding on the spit undisturbed looks highly unlikely this year as dogs and people crawl over it each low tide!
Greenfinches and Linnets are busy breeding in the gorse and a Cuckoo seems to be a regular visitor often watching the nesting birds from a post by the Little lagoon.

Linnets are especially concerned by its presence.

Shelduck are seen most mornings either on the Little Lagoon or flying away from ...they are easily disturbed ....
Shelducks against a rare blue sky last week!

...and for the record - a photo of the new secondary breach which seems to be growing in width and depth daily!
