Foreland

Early A.M: 2 Egyptian geese at Brading 'New bridge'. Only seen one before: a flyby at St. Cath's. So a bit of a novelty bird. But precious else. Zero waders? The water levels have dropped a bit, so that area should be more attractive now.

Lunchtime: had a walk along the coastal f/p near Foreland Fields horse paddocks; another area with huge potential but most of the time is overlooked. I heard whimbrel and two were on the deck. One wheatear. Couple of swallows.
