November 21st 2009

Light winds and clear spells last night gave me a belated opportunity to look for the meteors from the Leonid shower which was best on the 17th but still a few showing if you are patient enough and can stay awake.
Out this morning with John and Alfie for a walk to farborough spit, Draycote Water in gloomy and breezy conditions with the Great-northern Diver off farborough spit but mobile covering large distances between dives. No obvious new arrivals and only birds of note were Yellow-legged Gull, 250 + Lesser Black-back Gulls, Buzzard, 3 Goosander, Ruddy Duck, 100 Redwing, 10 Meadow Pipit and Grey Wagtail.
