Sutton Bingham - Thu 25 Aug

Having arranged access to a private part of the reservoir I spent a bit of time after work at the northern end near the dam, please note there is no public access to this part of Sutton Bingham. The Osprey, which I thought may have gone, was still around and favouring an ash tree (apparently this has been it's preferred perch for a few days but is completely hidden from public rights of way). The dam hosted a load of birds, with a single Common Sandpiper being quite a late bird and a large flock of wagtails, including a single Grey Wagtail and about a dozen White Wagtails amongst a similar number of Pied Wagtails. At least four Meadow Pipits were also present here. Just as I was heading back to the car, four Wigeon flew over.
