Another heatwave over

Hello

Breezy, a reduction in temperature and some showers was certainly a change to the weather if not the birds.

At Pitsford Reservoir this morning there was a Black-tailed Godwit in the Scaldwell Bay and this afternoon/evening there were four Yellow-legged Gulls (including a juvenile) and two Common Sandpipers visible from the dam. A Raven was at Hanging Houghton.

A meander around Harrington Airfield provided two broods of Grey Partridge, the Marsh Harrier with heavily abraded flight feathers, three Ravens, a Common Redstart near the Chippings Compound and two Whinchats north of Bunker Three.

Five Black-tailed Godwits and a Pintail were noted at Summer Leys LNR today.

Regards
