I was down in Wales visiting family last
week. No chance to do any real birding but Red Kites were everywhere and even
came into gardens for scraps that had been left out.
I did manage to see the Little Egret at
Arcot Pond last Wednesday evening before we left. It was standing into top of a
small bush in the middle of the pond.
Yesterday I had a quick look at Arcot. No
sign of the showy Water Rail family but two Wood Sandpipers were on the mud in
the NW corner together.
This morning I went up to Foxton Bends,
Alnmouth with GM for the Spotted Sandpiper- lifer.
Alongside a few Common Sandpipers on the mud bank viewing was difficult due to
the long grass obscuring our view but still managed to see it a few times.
