Slight Vis Mig

NocMiggers are reporting winter thrushes flying over at night from places like Portland but I've not had any from the Beddington obs. The first Sand Martins were reported in North London today too. Our only signs of very early spring migration this morning was 2+6+2 Cormorant moving south, a male Pintail was on the lake and a few Redwings by the hide. 3 Ruff in  the south east corner were remaining from last week's cold blast. 

The juvenile Iceland Gull was in its usual spot on the North Lake and there was also a first-winter Caspian.   

Been a couple of Dotted Borders in the moth trap.
