The hides are open at Frampton with restricted numbers and face masks required. It can be a bit hit an miss there for photography depending on water levels. The current gales around here are also an issue. Hopefully it will die down for you ....forecast says it will. 🤞

Check out online something of these sites to see if they interest. https://www.lincsbirdclub.co.uk/site/index.php/information/birding-sites

Being round the corner on the other side of the Wash, I am more conversant with Norfolk sites. Here's what's happening this side of the Wash ...

I am sure most of the migration will be along the Lincs coast as well. The problem is always getting close enough to photograph ☹️

cheers Eric gale force winds up here to as well as covid restrictions got more face masks in my camera bag than a gang of bank robbers . weighed up most of the options and it appears to be the best bet for anything decent in that area . around here I can literally drive to a few good sites (not reserves) and if the mood takes me just sit in the car and shoot out the window

Freiston Shore is a nice little reserve ....may even be better for photography than Frampton. But close enough to do both on same outing.

Unfortunately round here it's harder to drive right to the sites and use car as hide. Landowners 🤬
