29th May - cloudy and chilly morning, slowly brightening and warming, light/mod NE, 17C

 Lilbourne Meadows; morning

I wasn't expecting too much today, but as soon as I arrived the wet meadows surprised me with a Grey Plover and three Curlew Sandpipers.  Along with a Greenshank, two Oystercatchers, lapwing and Little Ringed Plover.

[since 2019 I've had 93 species at this site, including 18 species of wader.

Digiscoping conditions weren't good, but here's some record photos.








Stanford Reservoir; afternoon.

A passage of Blck terns was noted today through the Midlands and a single bird turned-up here.
Several Hobbies were hawking overhead too, Chris Hubbard had five.
