It was a poor start to the day but by the time Brian and I arrived at Buck Beck car park it had stopped raining and the sun was beginning to make an appearance, although there was a brisk SW wind. Despite this it was quite mild at 13C. We had arranged our visit for high tide but it was not as high as I expected. There were none of the hoped for wheeling flocks of waders; perhaps most have already moved north to breed. Disappointingly there were no bar-tailed godwits to be found. We saw 30 species in total and I was pleased to find my first coltsfoot flowers out.
