Great Ouse Valley - Little Paxton - 29 March 2013

Cold again with occasional snow/sleet flurries.

Started the day off with a couple of hours from the balcony from 08.00 which delivered a high flying Short-eared Owl heading north-east at 08:35, 2 Rock Pipits north-east and c 40 Redwings north-east. 

Then did a shortish spell at the northern end of Paxton Pits where there were 3 Smew (1 drake), 1 + Little Ringed Plover, 2 Ringed Plovers, 3 Ruff which flew north at 11.48 and 4 Chiffchaffs along the road to the pumping station.
