March 28th
With Storm Katie battering the area with 60-70 mph winds this morning I rather optimistically tried birding at Reculver but gave up because I could hardly stand up. All I saw were 200 Woodpigeons, 3 Pied Wagtails, 33 Mute Swans, 2 Mallard, 6 Tufted Duck, 3 Gadwall and our wintering Blackcap singing in our garden when I reached home.
I later had a text from Terry Wilson to say he had just seen a Swallow flying W at Grenham.
