Sutton Bingham - Thu 8 Sep

I spent about an hour or so on site early afternoon starting at the Fishing Lodge where it was very quiet and then making for the southern end where the first birds I saw were two Curlew Sandpipers!

The Curlew Sandpipers were associating with the two Dunlin that have been present for several days and five Ringed Plovers. The recent run of waders continues and also today there were four Black-Tailed Godwits and four Little Ringed Plovers plus a single Green Sandpiper and four Common Sandpipers.
On the water the nasal-saddled Teal had moved to the southern end with about a dozen other Teal and also what was presumably yesterday's female Shoveler and a drake Gadwall.
A quick stop at the northern causeway produced a Tufted Duck and a Coot plus a single Mandarin.
So all in all a very profitable visit this afternoon.
