I decided to take a chance on Sands Road this morning, and it didn’t work well. It’s somewhat difficult going, but the habitat is excellent, and birds should be present. I found only a few, then went to Wooton, where the situation was similar.

A gloomy morning with rain threatening, but we had a NE wind last night, which might help the migrating birds heading South.
