Summer continues

It’s been quite quiet over the last few days. The Ruff, 3 Green Sandpiper, 2 Greenshank and 13 Lapwing were still at Lytchett Bay.  At Swineham the Kestrel family have now fledged with 3 young noisily screeching near the Curlews Cottage. Hobby are now active over numerous ponds and lakes catching Swallows and House Martins rather than Dragonflies as to fatten their chicks up. Still no early signs of passerine movements, but we will expect birds such as Willow Warbler, Pied Flycatcher and Garden Warbler to start passing through the area in about two weeks.
