Beautifully sunny afternoons all week, so I headed down to the fields on on Wednesday. Two groups of
Long-toed Stints were the main highlight, 6 in the fields near the pylons, and a further 8 in the southernmost fields. Lots of
Blue-tailed Bee-eaters about too, and several hundred
Whiskered Terns, many in breeding plumage.
Tscuschensis Yellow Wagtails and
Grey Wagtails were also on passage.
On Friday two
Pacific Golden Plovers flew through, the first record this spring.
Long-toed Stint, looking smart...
