Green Woodpecker - Hook

 Highlight of this lunchtime's walk, a Green Woodpecker yaffling at the head of the Sprinkle Pill estuary. Also, 7 Grey Plovers on the mud flats of the main estuary. The salt marsh at Fowborough Point is currently attracting a variety of small birds - a large flock of Linnets and a few Meadow Pipits, Reed Buntings and Skylarks. Offshore - 2 Pintails were amongst the Wigeon (150+) and a Great Crested Grebe fished off the mouth of Sprinkle Pill.
