Garganey continue to star

24th March - the 3 Garganey continue to top the bill at the pit, often showing well on the west side of the spit.  I've taken a few more shots, though it is difficult to get all 3 birds together.  The 2 males have been fighting a bit, usually started by the male of the pair getting a bit protective.


All 3 roosting against the morning light


All 3 feeding together
I saw the/a adult summer Med Gull again in the sizeable roost on Saturday 22nd, showing distantly on the far side amongst mainly Commons.

Sand Martins have been seen in small numbers again over the weekend, but every time I go down there are none, so they will have to wait - maybe tomorrow's damp weather will force some down over the lake.
