BLACKWITS APLENTY!

Just a quick update for the last few days ;

Sunday 15th. Highlight was a Greenshank that was flushed from the North bank of the main lake at c6.30 which headed of NE. Otherwise rather quiet in the stiff N'ly breeze although LRP were up to 3 and a pair of Willow Tit showed well in Pugneys Drain

Tues 17th. Early afternoon EA rang to inform me that there were 21 Black-tailed Godwits on the reserve lake!! Now 21 is a fair old number anywhere and certainly seems to be a new record count for the site, although not a year tick . Also present later in the afternoon were 2 Arctic Terns which ARE new for the year and put us around 130 which is about 10 more than last year at this stage - keep it up everyone i can feel a record coming!!

Just a quick reminder to anyone visiting the site whether a regular or a visitor, all records are gratefully received - please either leave them on here using the comment box below or contact me via E-mail at jonnyhol@live.co.uk. Please phone/txt if you know me! i can then ensure the records are passed to the Master of the Log...Mr DP! ;-)

cheers, Jonny
