24th July - sunny spells am, cloudy pm, light SW, 24C

Visited Eyebrook reservoir during the afternoon, a Little Stint was present, can you spot it in the photo?  Probably not, very small water left hand side.
About 200 Lapwing at the inflow plus one Black-tailed Godwit and a Dunlin.  Few ducks were about, just a hand full of Teal, mostly Tufted Duck and Mallard, plus a reasonable flock of Mute Swans.  Two Little Egret and a Grey Heron were present, about 20 Common Terns were busy feeding and a few Sand Martin were about.  A Kestrel was hunting over the rough ground, which is where Linnet and Goldfinch were too.
