Tower Hide Rules

       Haven't got time for photos but Sunday evening in the Tower was excellent. The chiff-iff-iff of a Wood Sandpiper interrupted the chew-chews and the bird showed itself amongst the Greenshanks & Redshanks on the estuary late on. Before that, 3 Turnstones were present but flew toward the Tramsheds area. Marsh Harrier, Barn Owl & Kingfisher all showed nicely as did several Kestrels.
       Dunlin & Ringed Plover numbers have increased, with groups on the estuary, BHM and further up the valley as a flock of 7 Ringos came flying past Tower having emanated from Coly or Bridge Marsh. Common Sandpiper numbers remain in double figures. A probable juvenile YL Gull was out on the estuary too. Should've photographed it really! Some pictures next time or I'll lose my blog audience, won't I?!
