This morning, early a Mistle Thrush was singing behind the village and a Yellow Wagtail flew.
This morning news that 4 Ruff and a Whimbrel had been seen at Stanford reservoir, however I could not get there until after lunch, by which time the Ruff had left, but I did find the Whimbrel. Also, a Little Tern was with about 20 Common Tern, then 2 Arctic Terns flew in circled high, calling and quickly left.
As I walked along the path a particular call draw my attention above and 2 Mediterranean Gulls flew over low towards the inlet. Near the inlet 6 Greenshank were still present preening and feeding, also 1 Dunlin. Quite a few Pied Wagtails and 2 Yellow Wagtails were feeding on the islets, couple each of Little Egret and Grey Heron were also present.
A large number of hirundines were in again, especially House Martins, c500, with Swallows and Sand Martins, but Swifts with them.
