Shawell Sandpit/landfill; am. a male Stonechat was feeding on the reedy area. A nice selection of waterfowl today - Mallard, Shelduck, Gadwall, Wigeon, Teal, Tufted Duck, Egyptian Geese (pr), Canada Geese and Mute Swans. Four Red Kites, Green Woodpecker and a drumming Great Spotted Woodpecker. c10 Linnets on the weeds.
Gulls were disappointing. a larger number left, whilst those at the landfill never came to the sandpit whilst I was there.
A5 Pools/DIRFT; not much here - too windy.
Lilbourne Wet Meadows; Three Gadwall, Teal, Shoveler, two Greylags and Kestrel. A few Redwings and Fieldfares feeding on the meadows, also a Song Thrush.
