Well, here I am again with not much to show or tell. The Easterly wind has gone and the days have been much brighter but not much seems to have changed on the wildlife front.
The old dependables have been seen (Marsh Harrier, Scaup, Long-tailed Duck, Otter, Sanderling and Purple Sandpiper) along with a drake Smew which popped in for a few days, other than that it has been business as usual.

| So cold even the LTD had to wear ear muffs |

| Buds are appearing! Getting excited about spring. |

There have been increasing numbers of Wood Pigeons roosting on the north side, I'd guess around 700 or 800 on some mornings. Could be more as they don't all take off together for a fly round which makes estimating more difficult.
