Harbour Update – posted 22/09/16

After disappearing yesterday the Lesser Yellowlegs reappeared on Lytchett Fields again. Chances are it was around somewhere but just wasn’t located, it was also in the company of 100+ Dunlin, 1 Grey Plover, 1 Curlew Sandpiper, 2 Green Sandpiper and 6 Greenshank. In the Upton CP/Holes Bay area there was a single Wheatear near McDonalds, 2 Sandwich Tern fishing in Holes Bay south, 2 Spotted Flycatcher near the stone bench, 1 Firecrest in the Grove, a Peregrine went over and in Holes Bay, there were several hundred Black-tailed Godwit with a Knot mixed in with them and there were over 200 Wigeon.
