Greenshank Passing Through

The above photo shows one of the small tributaries of Vange creek. A walk across the marshes this afternoon seemed to be quiet compared to yesterday. Wheatear numbers were down to just 5 birds visible, 1 Yellow Wagtail, 1 Grasshopper Warbler, 3 Lapwing & 1 Snipe.

The Creek still produced Waders with an increase from yesterday in Greenshank up from 11 - 14+(probably 16), 1 Spotted Redshank, 1 Redshank, 2 Greensands, 2 Common Sands, 2 Avocets and 2 Oystercatcher's.
