A message from Adam Bassett at about 7:30am, regarding three Sandwich Terns at Little Marlow GP, spurred me into action. So I gathered my birding gear together and popped down. Sure enough they were still present on the sand spit when I got there and were still there when I left a couple of hours later.
Several other birders made the effort to see them, showing the importance of getting the news out quickly. This species is certainly scarce at this site, only being seen every year or two.

Cetti's Warbler - Again this bird was located by Adam. I had to hang around for about 20 minutes before I heard it call.
I then managed this head shot before it disappeared. |

| This Terrapin (?) has been present at the lake for many years. Seen here resting on a submerged log. |
