I wasn't expecting much on the sea this morning with the strong easterly blowing, which was just as well.

3 hours covering every patch of cover in the Desert saw:

 Dengemarsh and the Gully held a single Wheatear, 2 Stonechats, 3 Chiffchaff, c60 Meadow Pipits, 5 Yellow Wagtails a Sparrowhawk, Marsh Harrier and a Raven over. Elsewhere the Great White Egrets have increased to 6 on Burrowes per MH.

A very poor effort!
