I decided to try Ferrybridge and the area of Chesil beach where the Little Tern colony is. I arrived a little late and the tide had covered most of the mud flats, so I walked across part of Chesil Beach to see if any Little Terns had arrived back. The colony is clearly fenced off and with wardens watching over it during the breeding season.
I did see at least three Little Terns perched on buoys just offshore in the Fleet. Other birds present was a group of Bar-tailed Godwits asleep on the Fleet side of Chesil Beach. A couple of Wheatears put in an appearance. Other than that it was just a fly over Curlew.

| Little Terns - at least three were present. The RH bird appeared to bring food in for the LH bird. |
 |
| Bar-tailed Godwits - About 15 on Chesil Beach |
 |
| Wheatear - At least two on this small part of Chesil Beach. |
