Sutton Bingham - Sat 7 Oct

A Redshank was present at the southern end of the reservoir on Friday evening, but I did not have time to check the area during a flying visit before work this morning. A stop on the northern causeway produced a Common Sandpiper on West Pool and a single Chiffchaff feeding in the sallows in the corner of West Pool. A couple of Meadow Pipits flew over and a Kingfisher was noted. The long-staying Shelduck was still hanging about.
A return visit later in the day yielded two Common Sandpipers from the northern causeway whilst at the southern end of the reservoir nineteen Wigeon and two Teal were present and two Stonechat were still present along the edge of the reservoir south of the Canoe Club. Finally, a couple of Kingfishers were also noted.
