Birding the patch the last few days has produced very little of note and
not much change to the birds that have been around earlier in the week.
Ferruginous Duck numbers have dropped to 16 birds, but White-winged Tern numbers
have increased too seven, a very high number for the pond. A small number of
yellow wagtails have been passing through, as have Pied Wheatears, Northern
Wheatears and Isabelline Wheatears. Waders have been the majority of birds seen
with Little Stints, Temminck’s Stints, Dunlins, Curlew Sandpipers, Marsh
Sandpipers, Common Redshanks, Kentish Plovers, Little Ringed Plovers, Green
Sandpipers and Wood Sandpipers all recorded in the last week.
