If the March proverb ‘In like a lion, out like a lamb’ holds true, then the 31st is going to be a belting summer day – the month started with gale force easterly winds, overcast skies and temperatures never exceeding zero. Sightings from South Landing included 11 Ringed Plovers and an adult Little Gull.
Above average totals of several species were indicative of the inclement conditions both on the headland and elsewhere: 24 Snipe, three Knot, 750 Common Gulls, 66 Fieldfare, 25 Redwing and 24 Yellowhammers.
