It has been reasonably quiet so this is just a brief round of of the end of the week.
Thu 23rd: Steve had Little Ringed Plover and Common Tern at the reservoir.
Sat 25th: Mark had a Hobby hawking dragonflies over the Borrow Pit pool.
Today I had a Willow Tit in the wood with a foraging flock of tits, warblers and Treecreepers. A Common Tern was at the reservoir but flew away over the river, one was later at the Borrow Pit pool and then one was back at the reservoir. There was a recently fledged Moorhen chick along the river and three fledged Crows. There was also at least two Yellow Wagtails at the Borrow Pit but I didn't see the Channel Wagtail.
