Max and I left for Spurn at 12:45, the journey was pretty smooth with no real hold ups anywhere along the way. We arrived just before dark and quickly set up the tent and with just enough light we had a quick scan of Kilnsea Wetlands. In half light we managed to find a Curlew Sandpiper, an Avocet, a juvenile Little Ringed Plover, a Redshank and a Dunlin. On our way back to the tent we had a Bat sp. fly over us, with both of us now slightly regretting we didn't bring the bat detector and also three Roe Deer were out in the arable fields.
A good start given we didn't have much daylight - the rest of the evening was spent in the Crown & Anchor pub tucking into the Timothy Taylor's Landlord, a fine pint.
