Excitement was in the air when a report of 3 Black-winged Stilts at Stanford reservoir was made at 0700h, I managed to get there at 0930h and spot them distantly, so made my way closer. Fab looking birds, managed some record photos, then a proper photographer came along and has promised to send me some photos too. Also present was yesterday's Bar-tailed Godwit and a Black-tailed Godwit.

Yellow, White and Pied Wagtails were around, as was a Scandinavian Meadow Pipit.
The Long-tailed Duck was present on the water with plenty of Sand Martins, a few House Martins and Swallows feeding overhead.
