Willey; Only two Swallows seen today. Not too surprised as I didn't see any go in to the sheds to roost last evening.
Cotesbach Landfill; this morning two each of Common and Green Sandpipers again. Five Shoveler, c20 Teal. Four Red Kites around the area. A few House Martins came over and c30 Starlings flew SW. Otherwise all the other usual birds were present.
Stanford reservoir; a walk around the reservoir after lunch. A Hobby and two Red Kite came over. Warblers were hiding well in the bushes, although several Chiffchaffs were seen. Long-tailed Tit flocks in several areas, two Treecreepers were in the tall hedge near the dam.
Three Little Egret at the settling poool, and a single Grey Heron seen.
On the water 11 Wigeon and seven Pochard with Tufted Duck and Mallards. I counted 58 Mute Swans.
Two Common Sandpipers and seven Grey Wagtails were in the spillway.
