This afternoon at Collingham, Ferry Lane Lake held 1 Common Sandpiper, 5 Ringed Plovers (all ads) and 3 LRPs (juvs), as well as as juvenile Shelduck. On the gull front, there were 4 juvenile LBb Gulls amongst around 10 adults - the first juvvies of the year.
The Silt Lagoon also produced a Common Sandpiper, whilst it was great to see that one of the pairs of Great Crested Grebes at Mons Pool has at last been successful, with two stripey young in tow, maybe only a day or two old. A pair of Moorhens also had two small chicks, and another juvenile Shelduck completed the young bird interest. There were no waders, but 5 Teal, 2 Shoveler and 6 Gadwall were the best of the wildflowl.
