Sutton Bingham - Sun 2 Oct

My usual Sunday morning visit whilst Ellie was at church produced a few interesting birds. Four Tufted Ducks and two Little Egrets were viewable from the northern causeway.
At the southern end of the reservoir the adult Yellow-legged Gull made a brief appearance and there was some visible migration as three Siskin flew south, and I heard Meadow Pipits, Skylarks, and Pied Wagtails also fly over.
In the ploughed field opposite Goose Slade Farm there were good numbers of Pied Wagtails and at least four White Wagtails. Also in the field, six or more Meadow Pipits.
No waders today, but a brief note...a flying visit on Thursday night (29 Sept) did produce a Little Ringed Plover.
