Afraid not I am sorry to say - very quiet

Rimac to Seaview Farm

90% of what I saw was everyday garden birds
Highlights
Turtle Dove 1
Little Egret 2
Cuckoo although I have heard several this spring this was my first sighting of the year

Saltfleet Haven

Redshank
Curlew
Sanderling
Dunlin
Wigeon 1 drake
And a four-wheeler stuck in the mud up to its back axle on the south side of the Haven and looking to be at the mercy of the tide when I left.
How the hell it got there I don't know and it looked as the only thing that would shift it would be a helicopter! A nice insurance claim I bet

Donna Nook to Pyes Hall
Tree Pipit 1
Whitethroat
Little Egret
Wheatear
Lots of Skylark - its beautiful song got boring when it was basically all there was to hear

The 4x4 drove along the beach ( friday evening) all the way from mablethorpe north end and only stopped when confronted by the haven then attemted to reverse and became bogged it was flooded by the tide on sat before being dagged out by a 4x4 tractor on sat evening, insurance will be unlikelyto cover the damage as it was in a tidal area and contravening
various acts, it had also driven through a clearly signed foreshore breeding birds area. John (reserve manager)
