Ten hardy souls took part on the GBC monthly Saturday morning bird walk, very blustery with occasional squally showers.  We were very pleased to log 36 species. Highlights included two Ringed Plover, and a Med Gull (thanks to Tom) a Great Spotted Woodpecker in flight, and a small flock of Golden Plover between the pool and the Centre.
