Scant reward

On Sunday 25th January, a look at Ness Point revealed little save for the waves breaking over the defence rocks, 3 Oystercatchers on the walking ledge and 2 Turnstones which soon flew off when a wave came crashing over. A look at Worlingham marshes, 9 Moorhen seen as I walked over the rialway line. no sign of the Hen H. but it was good to see Dick W. and we had a fine calling Green Sandpiper flew north over the track behind us. I also spotted a distant Barn Owl flying in the far south corner of the main field. Around 20 Mute Swans seen a kestrel and a Buzzard. A look around Ellough only revealed 3 Red- legged Partridges close to the road, no sign of any Grey.
