I set off from Glasgow just after dropping Louise & Rachel at school to head for Scillies. The original plan was to make a detour to Nottinghamshire to see the Steppe Grey Shrike that had been present for several days. The pager was ominously quiet & just before Carlisle it confirmed that there was no sign of the Shrike that morning. A new plan was required !
I decided to stop at Martin Mere & then in the late afternoon carry on southward.
Several thousand Pink Feet, 23,500 had been counted that morning, were present. C30 Pintail, 5 Pochard and a single Whooper Swan. C8 Tree Sparrow were seen & up to 30 Ruff were seen.
