This morning there were two Snipe at the front of the reeds on the Slurry Lagoon. Three Reed Warblers were foraging near the bench and a Hobby did a couple of circuits of the lagoon in pursuit of dragonflies. There were still lots of Chiffchaffs and some Blackcaps about, and a Grey Wagtail was on the river. PS.
