WeirWood from 6:30 at the dam where Common Sand, summer Dunlin and Redshank were present. 2 Little Egrets were on the north shore, both ad’s plus 2 Hobbies in the early morning warm sunshine. 6 Common Terns were also seen with 5 Black-headed Gulls and an ad’ Lesser Black-backed. On the fence on the dam a male Great spotted Woodpecker was feeding. 4 Barn Swallows plus the usual gathering of ca25 Swifts were at the dam, one Barn Swallow was dipping down to bathe. Below the dam Whitethroat, Garden Warbler and another Spotted Flycatcher was nice to see. At the west end all was as normal on the nesting platforms, however the sight of 2 Little Terns was highly unusual, who knows where they were supposed to be. They flew around the platforms for a couple of minutes before going towards the dam at 7:40. A few Mandarins were seen but no youngsters. In front of the hide still Reed Warblers were going about their business plus a few Swifts were noted this end too. At Whillett’s 4 Reed Warblers and 3 Reed Buntings. Back at the c/pk Marsh Tit was noted and 2 Stock Doves were about. So a much better day than the last two here.
