19th March 2015

Weather: West 1-2, sunny with some heavy fog

Not quite the excitement today following  yesterday's Red  Kite, however there was a report of a Water Pipit in the paddocks mid morning. This is an exceptionally rare bird at the Lighthouse and coincides with the continued northward movement of Meadow Pipit.

Other birds moving North today included Jackdaw(4) and Woodpigeon (17). At Lingham bridge the Little Owl continues to call and a Kingfisher was observed perched up just to the west of the bridge.

A single Wheatear was at the West Groyne whilst a further 5 birds dropped in mid afternoon on Meols Common.
