Sutton Bingham - Fri 17 Apr

OK, I know, I've not posted any updates for a while...but I've been busy. Over the past week there have been a few things passing through at Sutton Bingham, primarily Common Sandpipers with the highest count being eight birds today.
Other bits and bobs of note since my last posting include a fly-through drake Mandarin on 14 Apr, a Little Egret on 13 Apr and 14 Apr. The first Reed Warbler of the year was seen and subsequently heard singing on 14 Apr and a snippet of the song can be heard here: https://soundcloud.com/user-974772027/reed-warbler-sutton-bingham-apr-2017
The first Lesser Whitethroat heard singing on 16 Apr. A flock of forty Linnet was present near the Canoe Club on 15 Apr and a Skylark was in the same area on the same day. Finally, an unseasonal Common Gull was noted on 14 Apr with two Great Black-backed Gulls.
And there we have it, you are now pretty much up to date with what's been happening at the reservoir recently!
