The nesting Ringed Plover was still sitting today, hopefully on remaining undamaged eggs.
The four Avocet chicks are still alive and being well looked after by the adult birds.

Waders continue to visit ARC, this adult Dunlin was one of three individuals that has now increased to six.
Little Ringed Plovers have bred at ARC without us knowing. Three juveniles and one adult remain on the islands frequently getting chased by the Ringed Plovers.
The female Red-crested Pochard and remaining duckling can sometimes prove elusive to see at ARC but in the last few days have been recorded daily.
Lesser Emperor dragonflies are now also being recorded at ARC, Long Pits and at the Point.
Juvenile Bearded Tits also continue to be seen well from Hanson Hide.
