June is usually the quietest month of the year with regard to "new" species on the list or even seeing much in general and that has certainly been the case this year, hence the real lack of any news.
I did manage an hour on site today though and there were a few birds of note around. Two Little Egrets were seen from the Fishing Lodge (at least one of which has been present on and off for a few days). A Raven was heard "cronking" and a single Stock Dove flew through. A drake Mandarin was present at the southern end of the reservoir whilst from the northern causeway the long-staying Cetti's Warbler could still be heard singing. A Reed Warbler was also in song along the western edge and the first Meadow Browns of the year were on the wing.
