Castlemartin Corse

Soon after first light, before the camper vans were awake, intermittent light rain - 6 chough feeding in the field behind Freshwater West car park. On the 2nd of 4 sandy scrapes inland from the car park, a green sandpiper was feeding. It called and flew towards the beach, but was back at the scrape when I returned. Reed warblers now present in force, and two grasshopper warblers were reeling - one near Starman's Hall, one towards the "pine tree end". Otherwise as previously - whitethroat, sedge, Cetti's, reed bunting.....
