Weds 7th April - Late Afternoon

16:15 >17:00
10c calm

With the wind having dropped from lunchtime and work on the inlet finished for the day it was time to take stock. The Common Redshank reamins along with now at least five LRP's. A group of three chasing each other non stop around the site whilst two wander around the margins. Two more seen out on one of the gravel islands may have been the same pair but alongside four Green Sandpipers (i'm guessing numbers much be 10+ of these now) and the Redshank they were the sight of the day, seven waders in the late afternoon breaking sun all camped on a small gravel island no more than three foot long. Why did I leave that camera at home?

The only other addition on the day was a single Little Egret in the Wader Pool.
