Rainham Marshes

Today I took a visit to rainham my local patch. The weather was warm and the sky was blue. I set off seeing a nothing at the feeders towards the woodland. There I saw as usuall the Robins, blue tits, great tits and a Female Black cap. In the 1st hide I saw 6 little grebe, 2 great crested grebe and a a mute swan. As well as the mallard, shelduck and other common wildfowll. As I walked around I could hear the Reed buntings and sedge warbler singing. There was nothing at all in the second hide. As we were walking back I spotted a kestrel hovering. There was not much on the sea wall and over at day with not much seen.
