Carlton Marsh

A Little Ringed Plover, a Lapwing and a drake Shoveler were on the wader scrape with the Canada Geese (k. Bannister/M. Littlewood).

A Little Egret flew north. 

Elsewhere 12 Reed Warblers sang along with 1 Sedge Warbler, 12 Blackcaps, 6 Blackbirds, 4 Cetti's warblers, 2 Lesser Whitethroats, 4 Whitethroats, several Chiffchaffs and a Red-legged Partridge.

Insects included 2 Holly Blue, 1 Dingy Skipper and at least 3 Green Longhorn Moths (Adela reaumurella) which are new for this site (CG).
