Roy's early morning round - Sunday

Finally checking the dung heaps yielded results. A fine male Wheatear was sat on the dung heap by the jetty just before sunrise. An Oystercatcher, presumably a local bird, was by the jetty and then by the car park on the bank. Only Common Terns on the bales at that time. Carrying on round the bank I then watched a Dunlin fly in from the west and fly round over the reservoir a few times before seeming to disappear in an easterly direction (Roy Hargreaves)
