Holden Tower
Two Common Terns were over the estuary this morning and there was a scattering of
Curlew, Oystercatcher and Shelduck. The tide will be high in the afternoon so watch
out for Gulls especially Yellow Legged Gull then. The young Buzzards can be heard in
he Decoy wood.
Decoy
A young Bullfinch was on the path and lots of Scarlet Tiger Moths can be seen around
the boardwalk.
Rushy
An adult and a juv, Avocet and a Green Sandpiper were here this morning. watch out for
Mediteranean Gulls as well.
South Lake
Two Cranes (Somerset birds but different to the four that have been here over this week)
Avocet three including the incubating pair. Two pairs of Oystercatcher one at least with
1 young. There was a group of 7 Common Terns for a spell but no signs so far today
of the run of Mediteranean Gulls that have been so reliable here recently.. There was
only the one Black Tailed Godwit this morning but we have so far failed to find the 51
that were here yesterday.

Rather quiet here recently or at best the birds are rather distant. About 120 Lapwing
and 40 post breeding Redshank are gathering in the furthest floods. There was a Black
Tailed Godwit and yet another Avocet this mornig. Two Little Egrets passed by and two
Green Sandpiper flew in a Cettis was singing in the Reed bed,
