Sutton Bingham - Tue 30 Aug

I got a call from the warden mid-morning telling me that an Osprey had just been seen from the Fishing Lodge, so I popped over for a quick visit during my lunch hour...but there was no sign of the bird. I am guessing, though don't know for sure, that it may have arrived last night and when the overnight fog lifted it simply headed off. It was almost a year to the day since I missed the last fly-through Osprey on patch!
The southern end of the reservoir produced a Green Sandpiper and eight Common Sandpipers. Two Little Egrets were on West Pool and the Shelduck was still about.
