Sutton Bingham - Thu 28 Apr

Two pairs of Shoveler were present yesterday evening but a little more interest today with a Hobby flying over the reservoir early afternoon and a welcome addition to the patch year list, especially as I only had a single Hobby sighting last year. A total of four Common Sandpipers were present this afternoon whilst other birds of interest included a pair of Mandarin on the northern causeway, a couple of Great Black-backed Gulls and a "new" singing Lesser Whitethroat on the railway embankment.
