Woolston Eyes - 27 June 2012

Another trip to the Eyes today for a wander around #3 Bed.

Plenty of Black-necked Grebe still around and still looking fantastic in summer plumage. Watching these birds is a real pleasure and it's such a privilege to have them here.

Lots of Shoveler on the water today and the few young Black-headed Gulls that had survived the heavy rains were being fed by adults.

The Morgan hide provided good views of a number of of Reed Warblers and a couple of young Whitethroat. Whilst the male Great Spotted Woodpecker seen on the feeders is a pretty common sight here now.

Before leaving, I finally got a reasonable look at one of the - vocal but elusive - Sedge Warblers.

Post breed BNG still looking majestic
