A very warm humid session which lent itself to mediocre birding in the main; the exception being an almost constant booming of a pr Bittern.
Hirundines were absent and only one Swift was seen.
I missed the goodies listed on the local blog as did a couple of local guys I know who also mentioned they were on a mission to film BNG and hadn't seen one.

Common Tern were around in fair numbers and I managed a few clichéd photos.
Otherwise it was down to Gadwall, Tufted, Pochard, Shoveler, Shelduck, Cormorant, Reed & Sedge Warbler plus a range of gulls.
However in conclusion it was still better than being stuck with local birding.
