Dunlin
I had a couple of hours spare so despite my car doing its best to fall apart I made it there. The male
Garganey was asleep under the willows along the west side and while watching that a pair of
Mandarin swam into view and onto the list. I then walked around with Steve Blake and up on the dry canal a
Whitethroat was heard. We parted our separate ways and I headed off to Marsworth and Startops. As soon as I stepped out the car I could hear a
Cuckoo calling and as I walked to the water a
Kingfisher flew past. A
Sedge Warbler was singing from the reed bed as did a
Cetti's Warbler. On Startops were 27
Common Tern and a
Common Sandpiper.
I then popped into College Lake more in hope than anything. I scanned all over and was pleased to find the
Little Ringed Plover that had been around for a while but even better I picked out a
Dunlin.
