Off to check the fence line...

... a euphemism for... err.... checking for Spot Flys on a fence post!!
On the reserve a stint spp, presumed Little, but distant in company of a Dunlin and six Black-tailed Godwits plus several Green Sandpipers and at least eight Snipe. Three or four Buzzards and three Kestrels kept thing on their toes.

A mixed flock near Little Hanger held Blackcap, Whitethroat, Lesser Whitethroat, Garden Warbler and a few Chiffs in amongst tits and Treecrepers.

Highlight at Westmead was a cracking Hobby chasing dragonflies.

With things a bit thin this  Corizus hyoscyami in the courtyard was the ONLY photo-op!!
