The day started slightly damp and got much wetter, any hopes I may have had that the rain would bring in some passing birds were dashed by the fact that the wind was a light northerly, rather than the wished for southerly. The result was a day on which I was inside for more or less the whole day, the poor weather and not being outside meant, unsurprisingly, that I saw very little. I did manage to get one picture of a redshank in the rain in the morning when I arrived though, the rain on its back is testament to the waterproof quality of well maintained feathers.
