Hello
More warmth today but still periods of strong breezes, hopefully they'll subside for the week-end!
Twelve Cattle Egrets at the north end of Stanwick Pits would have been unheard of not so many years ago but they were there today!
The Black-necked Grebe was still at Clifford Hill Pits today on the main barrage lake and the 'purple patch' at Summer Leys LNR continues with a Bittern again, a Marsh Harrier, a Wood Sandpiper, three Garganey, two Great White Egrets, a Ruff, a Ringed Plover, three Greenshanks and a Green Sandpiper.
An adult Yellow-legged Gull, a Ringed Plover, a Common Sandpiper and a Hobby were all at Titchmarsh Reserve at Thrapston Pits.
At Hollowell Reservoir this afternoon there was a juvenile Caspian Gull with Lesser Black-backed Gulls at the feeder stream end plus a Common Sandpiper and an Osprey flew over heading east at 1.05pm.
A Barn Owl was hunting at Lamport Hall this evening and this morning there was a Green Sandpiper, two Grey Wagtails, two Whinchats and two Hobbies all in the Brampton Valley below Hanging Houghton with a Wheatear and a Reed Warbler there this afternoon. A single very bright male Common Redstart was at Blueberry Farm, Maidwell this afternoon.
