A slightly chilly start but soon turning into a beautiful spring-like morning. Quiet to start with around the field edges but eventually productive  with highlights being good numbers of raptors overhead around New Decoy car park, a large mixed flock of crows and starlings in the field near Railway Covert and plenty of birdsong.
