Ham Wall RSPB & Meare Heath NR - Mon 9 Apr

Despite the drizzle Ellie, Tristan and I set off for an evening stroll up on the Levels. We popped Tristan in to his pram to protect him from the rain and walked out to the second viewing platform at Ham Wall RSPB reserve. Despite the weather there were still a few warblers singing and at least two Bitterns were booming away, a single Redshank was also present. However, there was not much else around so we retraced our steps to the car and took a walk out to Meare Heath NR.
We only walked out as far as the drained lagoon where a Great White Egret was present alongside thirty or so Black-tailed Godwits and a couple of Redshank flew in. The rain started to come down a bit more heavily so we decided to call it a day, especially as Tristan had also decided it was time to go home!
