Willey; I've only seen 20 Swallows flying around today, they maybe spending more time over the fields looking for food as its cool, or I wonder if some departed yesterday, we'll see.
Shawell Sandpit/Cotesbach Landfill; morning. Not much different than yesterday. Five Red Kites and 20 Ravens were noted.
A5 Pools; two juv Little Ringed Plover, a juv Ringed Plover, a Redshank, Common Sandpiper.
Rutland Water; afternoon. plenty of birds around the lagoons, including on L1 a Greenshank, two Curlew and a Ruff, Little and Great Egrets, Grey Heron, the usual selection of duck and a few Egyptian Geese.
There was not much on L4 whilst I was there but L3 was productive. Black-tailed Godwit, Green and Common Sandpipers, several Ruff and Snipe, Curlew and a juv Little Stint (just disappearing fromview). Several Common Terns, plenty of Sand and a few House martins. The principle bird was a Glossy Ibis which had been present a couple of days or so, it was showing well preening.
