Pintail still present, it was in the far corner by the old hide in company with a couple of shovelers. A couple of Gadwall also present quite near the gate offering good views. Also a Black tailed Godwit on the grass bank at the eastern end of the mere, several chiff chaffs and willow warblers as well as a solitary Blackcap were in the usual bushes in front of the Britten hide. Two female Sparrowhawks over the far side rested on the fence posts. No sign of a Gargany though. Also, a Fox wandering along the bank to the right of the hide. No Swallows or Martins over the mere at around 16:45.
