Saturday 11th May 2024


Another quiet day, though much less warm than previous days. A corn bunting on the reserve was the first we've had here since May 2021. The white wagtail was still present, as was a single wheatear. More excitement was generated by the waders passing through with a single bar-tailed godwit north and 2 avocets flying upriver.


First Heart and Dart of the year, which will soon become very common in later months.

Birds Ringed: Lesser Whitethroat 1, Whitethroat 1.
