Return Migration.

25/06/11
With new birds (particually waders) returning to the county it was nice to see a BLACK-TAILED GODIT feeding on the Flashes at upton Warren.
The recent dry weather had left the water levels very low, but there was some decent birds around.


A pair of LESSER WHITETHROAT were feeding along the track by the bench, and showing well.

Also, my First return Green Sandpiper was feeding on the Flashes.

Highlights:

1 Teal (drk)

2 OYC

17 Avo

10 Lrp + 2 Fledged young + 1 chick

1 Green sand

1 Black-tailed Godwit

20 Curlew

3+ Garden warbler

2 Lesser whitethroat.
