Carlton Marsh

A Common Sandpiper on the wader scrape at 08.05hrs (K. Bannister) was new in, but had left by the time Jim Plant arrived at 09.40hrs by which time a Green Sandpiper was feeding in the shallows.

In addition there were 4m 1f Teal, 3 Mute Swans, 52 Herring and 1 LBB Gull. On the main scrape 4 pairs of Tufted Duck, Water Rail and Reed Warbler singing.

Yellow Archangel is one of my favourite wild flowers (CG)
