No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.

Fly Flatts p.m. more Dunlin.

Greylags with 3 goslings.

Common Sandpiper camouflaged in the mud

2 of 4 Dunlins resting

Another of those sleepy afternoons with a light SE>3 , blue skies and sunshine getting most of the birds sleeping around the shoreline. Birds were as this morning with Common Sandpiper and Redshank dozing around the shore with Dunlins stealing the show with 4 still present in the SE corner sleeping part of the time and feeding in among naps.
It should be the turn of Ringed Plovers next in if things goes as the previous years schedule and someone in the area should have a Swift by the weekend.
