Close alert

More migrants

A few new migrants around today, the best of which was a male Redstart by the feeding station at Janet Kear Hide. A Common Tern was around the Mere most of the morning and at least 1 Grasshopper Warbler is still singing along the Reedbed walk along with Reed and Sedge Warbler.

The 2 Mediterranean Gulls (2nd sum & 1st sum) are still present and the Little Gull appeared mid afternoon on the Mere. A few new waders with at least 8 Dunlin, 3+ Common Sandpiper and nearby a Whimbrel this evening along Curlew Lane with at least 12 Wheatear and 2 Grey Partridge.
