14th Sept - cloudy and mostly light SW, 14 with rain developing early afternoon. The most we have had for many months - nearly 10mm

Lilbourne Meadows; morning

A walk through the meadows area enable me to find five Whinchats, sometimes feeding together.  Also, Skylark, Reed Bunting, Kestrel and a Green Woodpecker heard.




Stanford reservoir; early afternoon.

estimated 500 House martins, 100 Sand Martins and 20 Swallows feeding over the water.
Four COmmon Sandpipers again,   Plus still a good number of Shoveler and Teal and 10 Wigeon.  I expect the former two will reduce in number as the weed disappears. 
A juv male Green Woodpecker was near the dam feeding.
