A much more sedate week after five days around Spurn. I have shown two new birders around the site in recent weeks, Lloyd from Pershore/Worcs & Peter from Stratford. Both mornings were very enjoyable and we managed to shake a few birds out of the bushes which both enjoyed.
Lloyd was lucky to see at Spotted Flycatcher at close quarters at Marsh Farm, this is the first time I've photographed this species on the site.
On Saturday, a number of us did our normal Saturday shifts which coincided with the West Midlands all dayer event. We managed to record 79 species which was very pleasing. Species missed but recorded the following day were Golden Plover (over), Tree Pipit, Pochard, Water Rail & a Swift. Peter joined myself and Jon on Sunday for a very enjoyable session.
Access at the moment has become more difficult due to the game keepers from Ragley. We have asked for some clarification but not had any responce. Very disappointed given we speak to dog walkers, runners and report occurances to them.
