Willow Warbler
I had a 3hr walk around the Long Pits this morning where I encountered 21 Willow Warblers, 28 Common Whitethroats, 8 Lesser Whitethroats, 16 Reed Warblers, 2 Cetti's Warblers, singles of Garden Warbler and Sedge Warbler, a juvenile Cuckoo, 2 Marsh harriers, 3 Common Buzzards, 2 Sparrowhawks, a Great Spotted Woodpecker along with Blue & Great Tits, Song Thrush, Blackbirds etc. Nothing fantastic but at least there were migrants.
An early afternoon visit to the ARC saw just a Garganey, a Great White Egret and the Avocet family, rather disappointing.
At Burrowes Wood, Green and Common Sandpipers, Greenshank and LRPs all reported today.
