You've got me thinking now Daniel Langston re species and even age. Vague mem gbb can moult in 2gen by now. Looked darker in life + Prim window. Will look when home 👍 Remember lars jonnson said he couldn't always sep GBB YLG.I'm out of practise too but wi nowt else to look at !

This common sand later today seemed to be separated from the flock but can't be sure, so max remains 8.

Pit 60 pretty dead this am. 2 snipe & some lapwings the only waders. Imm M Marsh Harrier zoom x140. Thinking 3 cy M on the wing and tail pattern note evident here.

Quick dash to pit 60 given weather. Forgot phoneskope adapter. Ad you can see!! Black terns mostly distant in flight. Landed briefly. Self sound site tick. 2 juv blackwits too

Hmm. Third dead goose in 2 weeks. Flu? Some years ago, water was even lower than now causing mass fish die off. But that's not the case this year . Dead kites next?

Obviously, not Spurn! Pit 60. I snipe. The sum total of waders! Mini influx of teal 20+, though rain increasing water levels seems to have moved many species put 🤔 brief visit from a new Marsh Harrier. Cream crown in very heavy moult. Bring on the foul weather I say.

Sandwich tern dropped out of sky pit 60 after mist cleared. My 2nd self found site tick in less than a week. After black terns Monday. Sandwich rare here according to p60 Oracle SNT. been a while since last one. Sadly it didn't land and chased off by gulls

Knackered pintail pit 60 = autumn

Blimey! 3 green sand didn't get the memo that pit 60 is a wader-free zone

On reflection, i think this is a great snipe image at pit 60 😉 . That is, a nice video of common snipe (bad Dad joke).

Pit 60. One each of snip and green Sandpiper. The latter for 5 minutes. Nowt in ur l the c3 hours since.

Snipe pit 60 early doors. Think there's 2 on site currently

Talk about doldrums.I know high pressure ain't good for seeing/finding passage birds. But every site I watch is dead at mo. Recent rains mean what little shoreline there was @ Pit60 is mostly gone but water not deep enough for duck influx=dead. 34 yellowhammers at my farm site.

A friend mentioned he'd had year tick spotted flycatcher recently. I've not seen one in UK this year. And rarely do. I replied ruefully how i used to ignore spot flys as so common. Photo Pit 60 this am. Now I ignore Great Egrets. Common. But not for good reason 😕

Pit 60. Snipe at c x200 phone scope. Nowt else to see. Check the scaps.

Pit60 a bit same old same old this morning. Rain brought in 1 adult & 2 juv common terns.Two regular cream crown Marsh harriers together, both juvs, This one no wing tags. The other has a large yellow tag on each wing. I'm assuming the tagged bird is same as one seen here b4.
