Black-necked Grebe

A fabulous breeding plumage Black-necked Grebe was the highlight of the day, present all day on the Mere and showing very well. This is either the 4th or 5th record for the reserve.

Other sightings included the usual Marsh Harrier that has been with us for a while now, a pair of Raven over the outer fields.

Still up to 75 Black-tailed Godwit from Ron Barker Hide, also 3 Ringed Plover on Woodend Marsh from UU Hide also 4+ Little Ringed Plover here.

Great Spotted Woodpeckers again near Gladstone Hide and coming onto the feeders at Janet Kear Hide.
