Two Common Sandpipers (main pit) and a moulting male Ruff (south pit). I think the my last Ruff record here was in 2022. Some record photos in to the sun.
Among the Lesser Black-backed and a few Herring Gulls were two adult Yellow-legged Gulls.
Two Egyptian Geese flew over towards the south pit, later the 6 large goslings were seen with them.
Plus all the other current usual regulars seen.
Misterton; afternoon.
Still no Spotted Flycatchers found here, will this be the first year none appeared to have bred here.
A noisy Nuthatch tough.
Shawell Lagoons; afternoon.
A check here to confirm that the Great Crested grebe pair bred again, they have two fledglings with them. Also Coot pairs with young and a couple of lapwing on the shore.
Lilbourne Meadows; evening.
The winter flood pools are drying fast now and may disappear if the hot dry weather continues.
Two Snipe were feeding, plus Lapwings and Little Ringed Plovers, two were juveniles.
An adult linnet and juvenile on the pool island.
Plenty of Pied Wagtail families and a single Yellow Wagtail.
c100 Starlings again, a single Swift over and a few Swallows.
Two Oystercatchers were seen to fly off the rough lorry park area.
