Lovely walk with Sharon J this morning counting the birds at New Wharf Farm just the other side of the river.  The water was very deep at New Inn, and I had to resort to shimmying along the fence – feet on lower rail, while clinging on to upper!

Was very pleased to hear good numbers of Linnets and Goldfinches – at least 50 of each (got the Linnets on the way back) – and at least three Cetti’s Warblers.
