Sutton Bingham - Thu 9 Sep

A few brief visits over the past few days have produced a few birds of note, with three Little Grebes present on Tuesday and a Green Sandpiper yesterday being the pick.
A visit this afternoon turned up the Green Sandpiper again at the southern end and at least four Common Sandpipers were also present. A nice flock of eleven Mandarin were also present in the same area along with two Teal.
From the northern end a Greenshank was heard calling, but I failed to see it, but a juvenile Common Tern showed very well (there had been a fairly good passage of Common Terns passing through the reservoir earlier in the day, so I was glad one lingered).
A single Yellow Wagtail was present and a Raven was also noted. Little Egret numbers had risen to seven birds, the highest count this year.
