Yellow Wagtail
Plantation
It was an early start at the Gravel Pits on Sunday but the forecasted showers did not materialise leading to very little passage of migrants.
My first Lesser Whitethroat was recorded at Pophills whilst a Common Whitethroat was singing further up on hedgeline. Five Common Sandpipers were on the shoreline (another 4 on main pit).
On the main pit three Dunlin were on the main spit which was then joined by two Yellow Wagtails which I was pleased about. We recorded a total of five during the walk.
The Jack Snipe was still present in his usual place and it was good to hear the Cetti's Warbler.
Yellow Wagtail became my 99th species of the year at Salford Priors this year, what will bring the magic 100 up ?
