Uncannily calm at Cosmeston this morning [compared to the howling gales a group of Glamorgan Bird Club members were subjected to at Portland Bill the last couple of days!]. A Green Woodpecker posed nicely on one of the ‘snipe paddock’ posts albeit in poor light, and a juv Moorhen posed similarly on lily leaves at the dipping pond. There were about 50 Goldfinch feeding around W paddock.
