In Between the Showers

Of the 3 Great White Egrets on ARC this afternoon, this one was getting too close to the well developed Avocet chicks.



Also on the RSPB Reserve, over 20 Common Sandpipers, Green and Wood Sandpipers. A few Whimbrel are also starting to appear on their return migration, this one on Burrowes Pit.

On ARC this drake Pochard has a beak tag which is so old that any remnant of an ID or colour has disappeared. We've recorded Pochard marked in this way before but have not been able to find any recent tagging operation to inform of the controls.
