8th May Friday - sunny spells, 18C, light SE

Lilbourne; early afternoon

Check the winter flood pools, but nothing new, three Little Egrets, a Redshank and an Oystercatcher though.  A Sparrowhawk had caught prey (Starling, I think) and was being pursued by Carrion Crows and Jackdaw in to a hedge.

Stanford Reservoir; late afternoon.

Cuckoo calling and a Common Sandpiper on the dam. Mallard brood, but only to ducklings.

Plus the current regulars.
