Spotshank

 This Spotted Redshank was found at Dorney Common by Dave Cleal.  This is a scarce bird in the county so worth a look.  Several other birders also took the trouble to see the bird.  By early evening the bird appeared to have flown.

Little Marlow Arrivals in April

 A variety of birds seen at Little Marlow and nearby during April.  Most of these were found by other local birders.

Sedge Warbler - This was actually on 31st March but close enough to April! 
In the SW corner of the lake.

Redstart - On the footpath that runs up through Emmett's fields on 4th feeding along a hedge and a manure heap.  A very scarce bird around the lake.  

Pintail - These three were at the lake for some days.

Pied Wagtail - A common enough bird but I was pleased to get reasonably close for this photo.

Sanderling - A scarce bird at the lake, this migrant bird was only present for one day.

The Tern rafts were launched on 25th April and this photo was taken the following day.  Good to see the Common Terns taking an interest so quickly.  This is a new raft provided by Gilleard's.
