Damp Wednesday

Nuthatch

The original plan was to say conkers to the weather and have a wander across Chat Moss in the hopes of passage migrants. Then I let the cat in for her breakfast and decided I'll take my raincoat for a walk somewhere a bit more sheltered instead.

Longford Park was a lot less busy than the other day so I managed to watch a few nuthatches and a ferocious battle between robins before the kids were launched out of the storytime tents.

Rye Bank Fields was completely fenced off again (it must be a full-time job for someone) so I couldn't have a wander round to see if yesterday's spotted flycatcher was still about. A wander round the perimeter in the pouring rain wasn't awfully rewarding.
