Lots of fallen trees and debris for the Greenkeeping staff to clear up after storm Eunice. Quite a few birds around first thing, including a new tick for me on the courses as a Water Rail scurried across the path as I walked along the 3rd on the Blue this morning. They are very secretive water birds that live in thick vegetation around water - more often heard than seen. I managed to get a couple of blurry shots before it disappeared back into the undergrowth.

A few birds seemed to be returning to the courses ready to nest. I saw a couple of Reed Buntings to the left of the 3rd Blue and a pair of Stock Doves in the wood between the 16th and 17th on the Blue.
