The Spoonbill flew in over the hide from Burton Marsh and circled before settling briefly on the back of No. 1 lagoon and then disappeared again. The Marsh Harrier favoured the area at the back of the reserve by the old barn and only once came close enough to get a couple of shots.
7 Avocets present but it looks as if all the nests have failed again. Rumour has it a hungry Badger scoffed all the eggs along with those of the Black-headed Gulls.
The black blobs aren't marks on the lens or the camera sensor - they're St Marks Flies that have hatched and are currently everywhere.
