Look at the weather?

Over the week I have been on nights at the General Hospital, so very little birding has been done. But looking at the weather for the next few days I predict that Leicestershire and Rutland might have a few pelagic species gracing this landlocked county?
As it's quite late in the year I predict a twitchable Grey Phalarope or even a Leach's Petrel on one of the local reservoirs or gravel pits, but then again I might just be talking a lot of old bull?! Here's hoping...........................

You might well be right David.
Actually looking at the wind direction you've got more chance of seeing those two than we have here in St Ives. It looks like it might go Westerly in the morning but for St Ives it really does need to be NW.

The winds were not strong enough but it looks like Rutland Water had 2 newly-arrived GN Divers today!

After 12 days Leicestershire finally got 2 Grey Phalaropes in a day and the wind was actually coming from the north-east!
