Broom GPs

A quiet, cold and still morning on the pits arriving at around 6.15am.  The dunlin had finally departed but the two greenshank and ringed plover remained.  A new common sandpiper was feeding along the edge of the far bank.  It was also good to see the little ringed plover huddled down on a nest.

Two sedge warbler, garden warbler, lesser whitethroat and willow warbler were vocalising in and around the scrub behind the viewpoint.  The two wigeon continued to feed on the grassy bank on the east side.

Six swallow flew through.
