For the first time in what seems like an age I took a trip up on to the Avalon Marshes today and visited Ham Wall RSPB reserve. A walk out to the second viewing platform produced a flock of ten Ruff amongst a number of Lapwing, at least 150 birds must have been present, and at least nine Snipe.
A Great White Egret was present from the viewing platform, and a second individual was showing from the first viewing platform. Two Marsh Harriers hunted over the reed beds, causing mayhem amongst the wildfowl. A Kingfisher rounded off an enjoyable afternoon visit.
