2nd - The wind was back from the North today and had increased in strength to around 50 km/hr. I explored the northern reaches of the Camargue this afternoon and took the Gimeaux road towards St. Gilles. Had a look in some likely habitat by a small river and disturbed a roosting Black crowned Night Heron which flew off some considerable distance. Apart from the calls of several Cetti's warblers and a fly over Marsh Harrier everything was keeping a low profile thanks to the wind. Back at Mas d'Agon the waders hadn't completely disappeared. A single Glossy Ibis was braving the elements feeding on the exposed mud. In addition I counted around 30 Wood Sandpipers, which have been around for over a week now, 4 Green Sandpipers, a single Spotted Redshank, a handful of Snipe and 25 Black winged Stilts. I also had a great view of a pair of Water Pipits at the edge of the lagoon and single Stonechat, female Blackcap, Sardinian Warbler and, the ever present, Cetti's Warbler. Better suited to the conditions were the 50 or so Swallows, House Martins and Common Swifts that hawked overhead for insects.
