March 15th
As we had to stay in this morning while our gas fire was replaced we didn't get to a very windy but surprisingly mild Reculver until after lunch. We walked from Reculver along the seawall in unpleasant conditions with few birds to be seen. All we counted was 10 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 3 Mute Swans, 2 Oystercatchers, 2 Mallard, 2 Ringed Plovers, 18 Cormorants, 1 Little Egret, 2 Tufted Duck and 1 Little Egret.
