Hello
Possibly bird of the day was a Swallow feeding at Islip Water Treatment Works this afternoon with other birds at nearby Thrapston Pits being the drake Ring-necked Duck at the north end of Town Lake and two Greater Scaup at the southern end.
The two Glossy Ibis were again in wet fields at the Embankment at Wellingborough and the super Black Redstart was still at Thursby/Sandringham Road, Northampton.
Four Stonechats and two Ravens were in the area of Whiston Lock area on the Nene Valley and Upton Country Park hosted a Jack Snipe, about thirty Common Snipe and a Stonechat.
A Grey Wagtail was at Hanging Houghton and the Kelmarsh Estate held a few Siskins at Kelmarsh Hall, a Woodcock at Scotland Wood and a Golden Plover and Grey Wagtail near New Covert.
The Glossy Ibis was still at Stanford Reservoir today where also one hundred and twenty Pochard, five Goosanders, eighty Cormorants, two Water Rails, a Kingfisher and two hundred Fieldfares.
