Kingfisher Bridge – 19/7/11

The first bird of note was a Barn Owl hunting over the rough pasture surrounding the lagoon. Waders were disappointingly few with only 4 Green Sandpipers and a single adult Oystercatcher with an attendant chick. After some time a female Marsh Harrier flew in and settled down in the far reedbed, possibly on a nest. Apart from these a Green Woodpecker flew in front of the hide and a Kestrel perched for a time on a fence.
