Hi Today on the reedbed: Black Tern - 8 Little Stint - 1 Curlew Sandpiper - 1 Wood Sandpiper - 1 Sanderling - 4 Egyptian Goose - 2 Garganey - 1 drake Little Ringed Plover - 2 (scrape) Plus many Swifts and hirundines this evening. (Note - 17 species of wader on the reedbed today. Not a bad start...!) No sign of the Temminck's today, and it was only reported briefly yesterday. PF. |

How long do Black Terns hang around? |

Not long usually, but there is currently a decent passage going on throughout eastern England, and with the current weather conditions there are probably more to come. Any bit of water is worth a look, but Frampton is obviously the nearest "best" site to you. |
