Flock behaviour became favourable for counting at 630pm - 270 Sand Martins.
These birds and a couple of Swallows had been feeding over the marsh for 2/3 hours.
Otherwise a drake Shoveler was new and 1 of the 5 remaining Black-tailed Godwits was taken by a Peregrine so now we have 4. Otter in Mallard Pond and a Peacock Butterfly on the wing too.

Steve Berry had a House Martin in the Gwaun Valley today.
