The sort of weather me and the waders like, Fly Flatts.

 

                                    Good count of Ringed Plovers
                                    Alive with Swifts

                                    Dunlins still dropping in.

                                    Oystercatchers keeping their chick safe
                                    Juv Ringed Plover


                                    Oyk with juv





                                    Lively wader morning.



The Fly Flatts weather that I,m used to this morning that suited me and the waders with a moderate W>4 bringing heavy showers and dark clouds with odd patches of sunshine at 12 degrees.
           Alive with waders this morning enjoying the cooler, wet conditions but no new species arrived as yet. The Oystercatchers young looks very near to flying now whilst most of the Redshank juvs have flown, along with the majority of adults.
           Still at least 2 Curlew present with young along with a few Lapwing but most of their young are now flying. Just 4 LBB gulls over this morning with a mass of Swifts over the water making it the best year for a while for this species with good numbers of Swifts daily. 

2 Redshank
9 Dunlin
4 Common Sandpiper
