30/08/2025  9.00  - 13.00  Blashford North. Usual path and hide check. Bramble and trip hazard trim where possible. New rail looks good!!!!! No obvious problems except the outside of the western/large windows in Tern Hide need cleaning++ 

Sightings: Black tern still reported on Ibsley; Teal and Great White Egret on Gull island. Still a few Sand Martins flying around.

Only two ponies seen near the base of the spit between Goosander and Lapwing but others easily hidden by nearby bushes.
