More sweltering temperatures this afternoon, but I still braved the weather to spend a little over an hour at the reservoir. As expected it was pretty quiet, it's that time of year, but a couple of Little Egrets were present and a Sparrowhawk (my first at Sutton Bingham for a few months) caused a bit of a stir amongst the local Swallows.
On the water there was a pretty big gathering of gulls with the following counts: 607 Herring Gull, 141 Lesser Black-backed Gull, three Black-headed Gull and two Great Black-backed Gull. Despite searching I failed to find anything more unusual amongst them.
