Mere/Wader Scrape - Green Sandpiper 3, Common Sandpiper 3, Common Tern 5.
Main Marsh - Mute Swan 22, Wigeon 1, Shelduck 2 juvs, Lapwing 200+, Oystercatcher 7, Greenshank 1, Redshank 1, Barn Owl 2, Green Woodpecker 1, Great Spotted Woodpecker 1.
Roost in willows on Willow Pool - Grey Heron 2, Cormorant 6, Little Egret 14 came into roost as follows - 6 already in, 1 at 20.15, 1 at 21.22, 2 at 21.28, 1 at 21.40, 1 at 21.41, 1 at 21.42 and finally 1 at 21.54. The 6 "already in" were in front of the Wath Ings hide when I arrived but I flushed them when I walked in and they flew to bottom end of Main Marsh. A pity as one bird had a red ring on its left leg and a metal ring (I think) on its right but it was too far away to get any other details, has anybody else managed to? Tonight 3 birds came in from up the valley and 5 birds from down the valley.
