Hirundines

With an obvious national influx of sand martins today, I thought I'd give Brading Marsh a quick scan from the St. Helen's bridge area, but couldn't see any, nor much else really. However, driving home I spotted some off Carpenters road (horse paddock) and watched them head off north. Probably my earliest.
Otherwise more dusk stuff keeping me busy.
