A couple of hours on the reserve in the morning were very pleasant with only one other couple braving the weather forecast, it was actually pretty dry! We saw a flock of
14 Spotted Redshanks mainly in summer dress, 2 Greenshanks,
6 Little Gulls, a
Short-eared Owl which appeared to come in off the sea!, a Skua species briefly very distant chasing a tern, a few Lttle Terns, 2 Gannets, c20 Common Scoter, 300+ Knot including red adults, 20+ Bar-tailed and a few Black-tailed Godwits,
SPOONBILL and 4+ male Ruff.

Up at Choseley barns we had a
Hobby bomb over the road and saw both
Corn Bunting and Yellowhammer on the wires. After lunch we headed to a couple of other sites where we saw
6 Turtle Doves and the
MONTAGU'S HARRIER sitting on a fence post for 45 minutes!
