Tuesday 7th July

Sorry this entry is a bit late but been out at friends this evening, a good time enjoyed by all present, I hasten to add!!! Becky "the vol" at Gruinart had seen a Gadwall out in front of the new hide. While she was there, Becky saw 2 Great Skuas taking down a fully grown Shelduck and drown it and then they started to pluck it where it lay. Nature can be cruel sometimes... There was more rain last night when there was a further half inch on top of the inch of rain we had during the really heavy showers back on Saturday. I believe that there was quite a bit of damage to phones etc due to lightening strikes then too, say no more.
