29th June

Common Sandpiper: An early departing adult dropped down during a heavy shower at 7.20am. It was still present at midday.

Common Tern: One also sat out the shower, before heading back to Brent Reservoir.

Herring Gull: The third pair were guarding their very young chick, on area 8 this morning. There is a wide difference in age between the three lots of young.

Little Owl: The adults and young are getting a little harder to find.

Common Whitethroat: The male was feeding in the hedge bordering the Wetland Pen.
