It has been a quiet weekend in the county which is just as well as I have been busy competing with the collies. Jaeger did well and picked up 3 first places. Hence my birding has been virtually non existent. It doesn't look as if I have missed very much. Yesterday there were 4 Cattle Egrets and 3 Greenshanks at Stanwick GP, 2 Wood Sandpipers and Osprey at Summer Leys, Dunlin, Common Sandpiper, Greenshank, Ringed Plover and Avocets at the New Workings Earls Barton and 2 Ospreys at Hollowell Reservoir. There haven't been many records for today. At Summer Leys there were 4 Wood Sandpipers, Black Tern, Whimbrel and Hobby. 6 Egyptian Geese at Hardwater Crossing lake, Greenshank at Lilbourne Meadows, Whimbrel at Titchmarsh LNR and a Spotted Flycatcher in Flore Churchyard.
Hopefully a new week will bring a few new birds, we just need to find them!
Regards Eleanor
