Swillington Sweltering
I was led to believe there would be some rain today I was.
I was slightly heat fatigued after traipsing round this ever more disappointing mismanaged marshland 😩.
A Bittern in slow flapping flight was the pick of the bunch.
Common Tern were in fair numbers. 2 Grey Heron but for the 5/6th session in a row not one Egret species.
Only waders were c34 Lapwing seen and a couple or three Oystercatcher heard.
Many GC Grebe including 3 sat on nest, 3 Little Grebe also.
2 Pochard, several Gadwall, ouzings of Tufted.
Reed & Sedge Warbler still singing in small numbers, 2 Reed Bunting.
Goldfinch in a flock c75 strong.
Couldn’t be bothered lifting the camera from the sad sack.
