Lilbourne Meadows; morning and afternoon.
A smart drake Garganey was showing well, sitting on the grass next to the water, alas I had not photography kit with me. I could not find it after lunch.
A couple of Shoveler drakes and Little Egrets too.
Along the path adjacent to M! a number of butterflies, Small Heath, Common Blue, Peacock and Large White.
A Whitethroat was singing and Lapwing in territory.
Shawell Sandpit and Landfill area;
Surprisingly quite a few Gulls in for a Saturday afternoon, principally Lesser Black Backed.
I didn't count the Raven today, but over 30, with some fledglings being given food still. Seven Mute Swans, which is quite a good number for here.
