4th May Monday - Cloudy, mostly light NW, 12C - cool.

Lilbourne Meadows; morning. 

Notable this morning was a super male Whinchat on the meadows.  Also, a Meadow Pipit collecting food, so presumably has young.





On the flood pools were two greenshanks and five Dunlin, plus three Wigeon (two drakes) and the recent  regulars



Bittesby CP; morning.

It is worth noting that there is a good population of Skylarks and several pairs of Meadow Pipits on the meadows.  Also, a pair lapwings are holding a territory.

Magna Park Central; afternoon.

Great to find 5 singing Garden Warblers, plus Blackcaps and a Whitethroat along then eastern border.  A good population of of Song Thrush too.

Two Long-tailed Tits and Red-legged Partridges.

Stanford Res; evening.

Ring-necked Duck still.  Two Common Sandpipers on dam.
c70 Swallows, c100 House Martins, c50 Sand Martins, c10 Swifts.
