Trying weather today made observations and netting decidedly unpleasant. The male Red-backed Shrike was seen up near Adastral close and an interesting Golden Plover (Possibly American) was on the reserve briefly. Good numbers of swifts were battling through with at least 200 counted as well as the odd Swallow and House Martin. 4 Ringed Plover chicks were all present and correct. A dozen or so Common Terns fed out near the view point car park before moving off North, along with a couple of Little Terns.
