Sutton Bingham - Thu 29 Jun

A message on the WhatsApp group in the evening sent me scurrying to the reservoir to try and add Redshank to the year list as Pete had found one on the northern causeway. Late June is spot on for a Redshank on patch, so it was not a surprising find, however, when I arrived it had gone. Just as I was thinking of heading back home, Pete turned up and said it had been flushed and had flown towards the dam, so I hot-footed it round to the Fishing Lodge and fortunately relocated it in the north-east corner, result! I also found two Common Sandpipers on the dam.
