A drier day so far. Some sun and a little warmer at times but a lot cooler when hit with the strong breeze. Hardwick Park was surprisingly quiet this morning. A few chicks about including a group of coot's. Two large swan nests seen and at East Park a pair of buzzards in flight.

Happy New Year to everyone. First day of 2024 and we are having a dry day. No rain. Even Sunny! Mind the ground, fields and paths to Hardwick are well and truly soaked. Hardwick Hotel & the Park this morning very busy, possibly due to NYE parties.
