Fleet Head- Essex


Met up with Simon for some Essex birding. Fleet Head is pretty good in the winter- although it is difficult to photograph here as things are pretty distant. We had six Short-eared Owls, Hen Harrier, Marsh Harrier, Merlin, thousands of Brents, 5 Ruff, 5 Red-breasted Merganser, Corn Bunting, a few Rock Pipits and good numbers of other waders and water fowl including 200 Golden Plover.
As it was Essex also managed to bag a greasy spoons fry up and six fried donuts at Southend.
