Rainy days
While the first half of the count often has short, intense afternoon showers with violent thunderstorms, the last weeks of the count are more drizzly with longer periods of rain. Although it may not be very motivating during these days to go to station in the morning (especially to Shuamta), the company of a nice count team can really pull you through. Ultimately some of the most memorable days on station for me were rainy ones with a cosy atmosphere, unexpected sightings (such as Short-eared Owls) and a wide array of weather phenomena and cloud types.
