Another early start with the weather threatening to deteriorate around midday. Leaving the estate just before 08:00, a Robin singing from a small tree was the first "winter" song I'd heard (spring song seemed to stop about a month ago). Even more notable was that the singer was a completely brown juvenile! Arrived at Baron's Haugh about 09:45. Plenty of mud was exposed in front of the Marsh Hide and attracted a good seletion of waders (Little Stint, Dunlin, Ringed Plover, Green Sandpiper (2), Lapwing (many), Black-tailed Godwit and Snipe). A Water Rail called near the hide, a single Sand Martin was over the haugh and a Nuthatch was in the woods.
