Eileen and I started the New Year and Decade at Slaughden after staying overnight in the top Hotel in Aldeburgh. First bird of the year was a Collard Dove followed by Blackbird and Blue Tit. At Slaughden we saw a few Redshank and a lone Ringed Plover. There were lots of Shoveler in Thorpness Mere.
At Minsmere it was overshadowed by famlilies with noisy children and people obviously non birders wearing ridiculously bright un suitable clothing and footwear. They then complain they have not seen anything for their fiver. Ratty one of the volunteers were there, she is so called cos she has buck teeth and greasy hair and looks like a fat Rat.
There should be a reserve protocol. bright clothing equals a non visit to the reserve.
