Final Albufera Marsh Slog

Today I finally accepted that this gigantic reserve is too much for a person of my advanced years (coming up 43 next Tuesday 😅). About 4 access routes from yesteryear have been blocked forcing one to wander unnecessary miles and not see birds 🥸. 

Got 2 Marsh Harriers one high upstairs but the other cream crown took off from a field showing rather well.
Two Red-Knobbed Coot came so close I requested them to back away for photo purposes - they ignored me, the swine

Managed another couple Great Reed Warblers singing as were a couple Reed Warblers. Otherwise same old BW Stilts, Avocets, 2 Egret Sp. & 🦩. Sardinians, Cettis, 1 Hoopoe.

All the expenditure all the miles and years I have forfeited and still not a single Dunnock 😢.
