Not sure where to start really, I`ve been to & fro from the Deer Park & the Gann over the past few days, with nothing much to say other than a titanic struggle between two Herring Gulls on the Gann early Wednesday morning, both seemed to want to drown each other but after an exhausting five minutes they broke apart as if nothing happened, I took loads of pics but without going overboard (no pun intended!) I kept them to a minimum, finishing from when they swam off together. Other than that fairly quiet till this morning, when an early morning stroll again at the very windy Gann turned up some more Waders, difficult to count but something like 18 Whimbrel, 12 RPs, 10 Dunlin 6 Brent, 7 Barwits, 2 White Wagtails, 2 Knot(?) This afternoon on the incoming tide the 6 Brent on the shingle spit. Also nice to meet Toby Middlemist, a keen young man honing his skills with Dave. To finish I went to St Brides Woods - almost tropical out of the wind - where my first (& pobably only) Cuckoo of the year was calling.
Something more peaceful from today....
