January 13th
As it was pouring with rain this morning we went shopping and waited until after lunch to go out when better weather had been promised. In the event we only had about an hour's birding between the heavy showers. Walking along the seawall from Reculver we only saw 10 Mute Swans, 650 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 5 Redshank, 15 Lapwings, 26 Common Scoter and 2 Stonechats.
