Dale

The Gann this morning: 12 Mediterranean Gulls (7 adult, 4 first-winter, 1 second-winter) and a Common Gull among the large gull flock. 2 Brent, 16 Teal, 4 Little Egret, 4 Little Grebe, 4 Redshank and a Water rail working in and out of the reeds near Crabhall (mostly in!). Quiet around the village and on the airfield, again no snipe. 2 Chiffchaff and a Goldcrest on track up.
