Wet Saturday

On Saturday 4th November, it was very windy and raining I checked Hamilton Dock but no sign of the VS, a tweet saying a Leach's had been sighted flying north, so I looked sheltering against the Harbour Wall and the remains of the Coastguard look out where I spotted Andrew E, only birds seen was a close juvenile Gannet flying south and 3 close Brent Geese also flying south. I checked the Hollingsworth estate for the possibility of Waxwings, no luck I was about 14 hours too early!
