Good views of a marsh harrier this morning, not Richard C's tagged bird but a fine adult female. A sparrowhawk dashed along the Corse, the two Cetti's nearest the hide sang constantly during my 40 minute visit, 200m apart, and water rail squealed.
For what it's worth, cattle in the Starman's Hall area can be avoided by parking at Gupton Farm, and walking the short distance inland along the top track to where it drops down to the Corse and Hide. But this may be academic for the next 2 weeks.
