Carlton Marsh

Busy strimming/digging island vegetation this morning. On site were Spotted Flycatcher (Keith Bannister) Kingfisher, 2 Buzzards taking advantage of the thermals, one mobbed later by 18 Jackdaws. Water Rail and Whitethroat were calling.
 
2 Red Admirals were feeding on our white Buddleja and at least 6 male Migrant Hawkers were on the wing.
 
I visited Broomhill Flash yesterday and was very impressed with the recent management intervention to create even better wader habitat. Seems like the birds are liking it too!
