The male Kingfisher was fishing along the embankment allowing very close-views. A young Peregrine was having a tussle with a buzzard. And a Ruff flew the length of the pools before settling behind Crabhall. Earlier up the airfield: No sign of yesterdays Lap Buntings. 10 snipe and c1000 Herring gulls.
