This evening at Wilstone





















SUNDAY 17 JULY

Well, what a glorious summer's day. Virtually rain all day, with little let up and strong, blustery SW winds. Expected some new waders in but nothing other than 5 more ICELANDIC BLACK-TAILED GODWITS (see Francis Buckle's images above).............

WILSTONE RESERVOIR (HERTS)

I managed to get over to Wilstone this evening but too late to see the 5 godwits - they had all departed....

In fact, very little to see in the blustery and wet conditions; the 14 LITTLE EGRETS were still present, as well as the juvenile COMMON REDSHANK......
