A p.m. visit Wed.  on a grey breezy day.
1 Whimbrel, 7 Black Wits, A Great Crested Grebe carrying to youngsters()first I’ve seen this yea). No Garganey and no sign of a Woodsand that was reported on Tuesday. Good numbers of Swifts, plus Male and Female Marsh Harriers and a flyby Cuckoo ( there were two calling together at one stage) . All from VP1
. Up to 5 Hobbies seen in the air together in the Street Heath direction but they stayed in that sheltered area out of the S.W. wind. maybe the Dragon flyis were doing the same thing.
Very pleased to meet up with Brian Hill and Tom Raven neither of whom I had seen for some time!
