Windy day...

A brief few hours around the patch this morning,saw a couple of highlights being logged in the form of a single 4th year Yellow-legged Gull watched loafing on the fields at Bonby along with a group of 23 Lesser black-backed Gulls and a couple of juvvie Wheatear watched battling along in the blustery westerly wind.The only other notable sightings were at least 200 Linnet and a flock of 268 Golden Plover.To make things worse,apart from the bloody wind,was the haze,coupled with a constant smoke screen from the steel works,making the visibility not great,so i called it a day after 2 hours.Cooler weather is on the way thank god!.
