New Years Day!
Lots of changes in Alnmouth; one-way system, marked parking areas and no place to park except the beach. A big improvement! Also work around the Golf Course pond looks promising for birding.
Had the beach more or less to ourselves this morning but then the place was heaving later as people took the plunge.

This year my plan is to improve my Botany Skills, Plant Identiication esp..
BSBI organise a New Year Plant Hunt. The idea is to find as many flowering plants in a 3 hour period on either 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th January and add them to the website.
