Rainham Marshes

It was a cold and bright start at Rainham Marshes on Saturday morning so I decided to set up at the small pool just past the Ken Barrett hide to see the showy Water Rails that have been there, they were, but  certainly not showy. A kingfisher and Common Chiffchaff were also seen whilst getting cold waiting for the Rails to appear. So after a while I gave up and carried on and added Bullfinch to my patch year list near the feeders next to the boardwalk.
