Norman and I started early and were in Bishop's Hide before 07.30. A Little Stint was a good find, and Bearded Tits are always welcome. A walk right around the reserve turned up more interesting birds: the three Whinchat were probably the best of the bunch. (We were pleased to show them to old birding acquaintances Richard and Michael and grandson)
A visit to the centre hides (after scones!) gave us Wood Sandpiper and twenty or more Spoonbills, while the walk back produced a 'kettle' of ten Common Buzzards over the reserve. We chatted with Elizabeth Dack for a while, before walking around Walsey Hills - apart from lots of Ivy Bees, nothing to report, so we left for home...
