Monday afternoon update - 27th April 09

Site quiet again, hopefuly the lull before the holiday weekend storm?

Smattering of Yellow Wagtails, at least seven around the main body of water.
Around 30 Housemartins, 2 Swallows and a Sand Martin over the water.
Shelduck pair still present as was a single Little Ringed Plover.
A woodpecker, probably a Green, was drumming in the trees at the bottom of south centre field.

As for the site itself, unless the rain has changed things, the lowering water levels means the inlet is now cut off just leaving a series of pools but a more extended mud area leading into the main body of water.
