With the influx of Alpine Swift in the last couple of days, you never know what might turn up – the southerly winds are definitely kicking the Osprey season off to a good start across the country. The highlight of the sightings today was a Ruff present at Lytchett Fields, regularly moving between Sherford and French’s Pools. Also present at Lytchett Fields was a decent flock of c.100 Black-tailed Godwit, 1 Spotted Redshank, Dunlin and Redshank. At Swineham, a count produced 12 Shoveler, 27 Gadwall, 137 Teal, 87 Black-tailed Godwit and 2 Marsh Harrier.
