Willey; first thing to the east a juv Spotted Flycatcher and a Whitethroat were feeding around the pond.
Cotesbach Landfill; a quick look here this morning, only 1 Green Sandpiper and 4 Red Kite were of note. A Treecreeper was in the spinney calling whilst feeding.
Stanford Reservoir; 6+ Yellow Wagtails around the dam area, also several Grey and Pied Wagtails. Warblers were active in the bushes, but keeping well hidden most of the time, Willow, Chiffchaff, Blackcap and Whitethroat. About 25 Tree Sparrows and a few Reed Bunting were in one weedy area.
Duck numbers seemed low, but a new site tick for me was a female Mandarin Duck. The Common Tern pair were present attending their youngsters on the raft. A couple of Grey Heron were on the dam.
