We've had some brilliant sightings over the last week or so.

Yellow wagtails have finally been seen this summer, they've been sadly absent this year, but it was great to see from Saltholme Pools hide a pair which appeared to be taking part in some later courtship.

  

We've had a curlew sandpiper in breeding plumage on moving between the wet grassland (seen from Paddy's) and back Saltholme pool.

Curlew sandpiper (not in breeding plumage unfortunately)

We've also had fairly regular sightings of marsh harrier and kingfisher at both the Wildlife Watchpoint and Phil Stead hide, so to finish here's a photo of a kingfisher not taken here but still a lovely photo.
