Willey; a Spotted Flycatcher spotted on the edge of the BH wood, other birds flitting about so I presume that the family still present.
Shawell Sandpit; morning; not many Gulls present but Carl spotted a juv/1st winter Mediterranean Gull, which quickly flew off and then a juv Caspian Gull showing well. Shoveler, Little Grebe and a Common Sandpiper were present.
Husbands Bosworth Sandpit; afternoon. Not much present in the only remaining pit area, five Little Grebes though.
Welford/Sulby reservoirs; a check here as the water is currently low, despite walkers can get close to flush birds.. Three Grey Herons, two Common Sandpipers, three Shoveler, a Gadwall, two juv Yellow Wagtails.
Stanford reservoir; a walk along the Leics side from the inlet to the dam. Notables were a female Red-crested Pochard, three Shovelers, 10 Gadwalls, a Little Egret, c 15 Common Terns, a Common Sandpiper, Grey, Pied and Yellow Wagtails and Kingfisher.
