Wilstone - 14.5.25

Avocets

The previous day 3 Avocets were found at Wilstone Reservoir but sadly I couldn’t get up there. This wasn’t a problem as they were still there the following day and so once dinner was finished I headed up and wandered round to the hide. From here I found 2 of the 3 birds showing well on the left of the spit. For some reason I thought they were a Tring tick but I checked my records and found they weren’t as my only Herts bird was also at Wilstone way back in November 2003 so no wonder I’d forgotten!

2 Shelduck and a Hobby were also noted.
