21st Aug - cloudy am, sunny pm, 24C, very light SW

We Continue to be bathed in very warm humid tropical air, things seem generally quite, but deceptive really.

Stanford Reservoir; a look this evening produced a single Common Sandpiper, 2 Grey Wagtails, the female Mandarin Duck still, a Shoveler and 2 Teal.  ~30 Tree Sparrows around the feed station, a few Reed Buntings gathering for roost and 2 Red-legged Partridge.

I was not present but this morning the ringers netted 4 Tree Pipit and an acredula-like Willow Warbler.  Later an observer reported a Marsh Harrier.
