Wildlife sightings

May and June see the final push in migration North, the arrival of late breeding birds and a flush of new hatchlings. All the breeding waders will have young present on the reserve; Avocet, Lapwing, Redshank, Ringed Plover and Oystercatcher. These months also have the potential to turn up some rarer species. In recent years these have included; Golden Oriole, Red-necked Phalarope, Temmnick's Stint and Pectoral Sandpiper. Towards the end of this period we see the first potential signs of non-breeding birds on return migration. Keep an eye out for Dragonflies and Hobby!
