An ad’ Lesser Black-backed Gull was on the water and a few Common Terns were noted.
At the west end all was well on the nesting platforms today with fledgling Common Terns and Black-headed Gulls all having done well. 3 Black-headed Gull chicks and 4 Common Terns plus 9 Great-crested Grebe chicks were present and the second pairs of gulls and terns were still sitting. It was a very busy area around the platforms. Other birds inc’ both Marsh and Coal Tits in the c/pk area and a Whitethroat. Overhead 2 Buzzards were the only raptors noted. A further 2 Little Egrets were seen and 4 Stock Doves were noted. All very much the same as the last few days here, enjoyable though.
