Hope you all had a good, if indeed wet, bank holiday, but it was back to work today and I spent a pleasant afternoon monitoring our birds on site. Highlights include -
Waders - lapwing, little ringed plover, oystercatcher, redshank
A pair of yellow wagtails on Phase 2
Immature male marsh harrier on Phase 1
2 hobby's on Phase 1
2 common terns fishing in Phase 1
Black-tailed skimmer dragonflies on Phase 2
Cinnabar moths and a common blue butterfly battling the wind over Phases 1 and 2
And a peregrine early this morning, seen by volunteers John Ellis and Graham Gamage
