Spring watch ? they are arriving

With the second day of high winds and rain forecast it was up and out ASAP for a check on some of the waters around the area. but no blown ins so far maybe tomorrow one or two will come to light, reminiscence of Petrels etc!!!
So to today, sadly no Wheatear shots it was just to far out on the ploughed fields of the turf farm on the isombridge area, and was loosely associated with a large finch flock?
By lunch time I was fed up and went back to looking for Hares but not a one did I find in any of the usually guaranteed places. And even worse last years Water vole places was as bare as mother hubbards cupboard?


Apley wood did well as a last stop for the day with 2 Sandmartins over the water and 25 Goosander on the water.

Short but sweet
