Day 4 Brownsea

Kicked off with a rather vocal Firecrest seen in the garden from the bedroom window. Unfortunately too quick for the camera. As I could also see the lagoon from here, decided to a quick 'garden' list notching up 45 species.
The bright start came to an abrupt end with the arrival of a westerly front. The rain however provided a photographic opportunity when it put down some passing Swallows onto wires just outside the window. Light levels a bit low though.






One last visit to the lagoon before I had to go produced 5 Barwit new in, 8 Knot and the obligatory Spoonbills. Bit to dull for photos though.
