Good views of Sammy 2 yesterday morning, mobile but mainly on the "reedbed". The drake Scaup is now in full breeding plumage. Several hundred Brent still around plus Sedge Warbler, 3 Little Ringed Plovers, a Common Ringed Plover on the nest and 2 White Wagtails.

The Black-w Stilt soon moved from the reedbed and then stayed on the lagoon near the 360 hide for a couple of hours where it could be viewed well either from the hide or from the track. Late morning it flew over the track to the flooded fields where it could still be seen, but at some distance.
