02/12/23 9.00 - 12.30 Blashford North. Visibility poor ++ over Ibsley Water due to mist - only cormorants squabbling over perching posts!! and a few tufted ducks and coot visible. One key task is the need to cut/coppice the western most willow on the bank to the left of the sand martin wall to enable a clear view of the feeding platform from Goosander Hide - reported to Catherine.
