So after the trials and tribulations of my aborted trip to the Somerset Levels and all the domestic 'busyness' surrounding my house...

 Off birding this week for a few days in the Humber Head levels and then hopefully across to the coast  - maybe Gibralter Point or Spurn...

With strengthening winds from the East all week the signs looked good for some visible bird migration but where to go? Had to be the East ...

Talk about bright n breezy ... must have been getting up for force 7 or 8 when we went out a couple of days ago to a reserve in Lincolnshire...
