Bittern still booming this morning, not as frequently as yesterday and not as easy to hear because of the wind but still booming. Apparently could be heard from the farmhouse at 4 am!
Started my visit at Edderthorpe where it was quieter than of late although still 4 Avocets, Shelduck 5, Redshank 4, Green Sandpiper 2, LRP 2, Oystercatcher 1 and Snipe 1. Onto Wombwell ings next where I finally saw my first Sand Martin of the year, just the one and rapidly moving north. Also present Wigeon 29, Redshank 6, LRP 2 and Golden Plover 1. Onto Old Moor where the Avocets on the Wader Scrape are up to 7, the 2 Egyptian Geese were also on the Wader Scrape.
