SW pit notables: Great White Egret from 1245 to 1345 but believe it may have left to the West after I left. 1 Great Crested Grebe 2 Little Grebes 2 Shelduck 1 Kestrel At 1330 heard a Tawny Owl calling from around WSSG entrance. S Pits: 1 Redshank 2 Egyptian Geese 8 Shoveler 1 Green Woodpecker 1 Great Crested Grebe 6 Lapwing Reserve: 2 Egyptian Geese 12 Goldeneye 1 Kingfisher 1 Little Grebe 1 Great Crested Grebe Also discussed a hybrid Scaup x Tufted with a kind couple from Sheffield. Then went to the tip to view gulls - not a hope (for myself) in picking out Caspians but did check for Meds and Glaucs. c30 Greater Black-backed Gulls and c200 Herring Gulls on the slope visible from access road. 2 Green Sandpipers seen in flight with Alex P at 1530 hrs. |
