Sutton Bingham - Sun 4 Sep

It was back to normal so to speak this morning, with the Green Sandpiper still at the southern end of the reservoir along with a total of nine Common Sandpipers (a tenth bird was on West Pool). Three Mandarin were also noted at the southern end and a Reed Warbler was still knocking around.
Little Egret numbers had gone up to four birds, with one on West Pool, one near the Sailing Club and two near the Canoe Club. The Shelduck was still around the northern causeway and a flock of twenty Linnets were feeding on the lawn in front of the Fishing Lodge.
A return visit later in the day did offer more interest though with a Whinchat present in vegetation on the edge of West Pool.
So I ended the weekend with another patch year tick.
Sutton Bingham year list 2016 now at 110 species.
