MAXEY G P



A good morning at the pit.

2 wood sandpipers now present, 2 green sandpipers, and 2 little ringed plovers flew in. They settled briefly on the stones below the seat and to the left of the pump. Photo of one. They then flew to the far mud flats. Only one of the young terns still on the raft this morning. The other 2 were being fed by the adults on the flats.

Counted 9 Little Egrets along the Cut and saw a whinchat near the first bridge in Maxey Rd. They have been seen here before.

2 grey wagtails at main bridge of Cut.
