Marloes Mere

Well worth a very wet post-lunch walk: a cracking male Pied Flycatcher in the sallows to the left of the Britton Hide. And a female Sparrowhawk came crashing through.
From the Oriole Hide, 7  Black-tailed Godwits. But I could not find the female Garganey seen by two visiting birders from Derbyshire.
The ploughed field behind the hide was full of White and Pied Wagtails: Lyndon’s 100+ is easily possible. I only got a glimpse of a Yellow Wagtail: the two visiting birders had great photos of a bright male.
