Latest sightings -

 Walked round the Marsh today for the first time since last Tuesday and found two Stonechats.  A male on Clendish Marsh and a female at West Marsh.  Fingers crossed that they might stay this year.  Other signs of Autumn were a Redpoll SW calling and a Linnet SE calling.  Also nine thrushes seen distantly coming down at East Marsh, which may have been my first Redwings of the year.  Walked over to try and relocate them or hear them call, but no luck.

I was an hour and a half later than I normally walk round, so this may  have been why I saw my first Weasel of the year (at Clendish Marsh) and my first Waler Vole of the year, which swam across the channel just north of the Green Bridge.

Calling Goldcrest and a swiftly flying Kingfisher and at least two Grey Wagtails too.
