Hi Bob,

I was at Clowbridge 08:30-10:30 and saw you coming along the south bank as I was heading back towards the car park so just missed you and the Osprey too!!

Only additions I had were:

Coal Tit, several calling in the plantations,
Goldcrest, 1 with Coal Tits,
Stonechat, male in clearing near new plantation,
Wheatear, 1 on res bank & 3 near Nutshaw.
Greenfinch, 8 flew out of car park bushes,
Jay, 2 flew into tall trees near car park and then on towards Nutshaw.

Regards,
David.
