Latest Sighting
A murky day with misty rain on and off making visibility difficult at times. On the up side of that it did feel 'rare' today although at the time of writing this no 'mega's' have been found..
A nice influx of Black-tailed Godwit is underway as more birds return from Iceland. Over 200 were feeding on Vinson's and Sunley's Marsh today. Assorted waders around the reserve included 4 Little Ringed Plover, 10+ Ruff, 100+ Lapwing, 8 Oystercatcher, 2 Ringed Plover and Avocet.
At least one but possibly 2 Marsh Harrier today. Little Egret floating around the reserve. Great-crested and Little Grebes in front of the Harrier Hide.
Locally some good birding to be had with Corn Bunting, Grey Partridge, Yellowhammer and Yellow Wagtail all within a few minutes of the reserve.
