April showers

I stopped at Kilvington and Cotham on the way home this evening, but got caught in a shower without a waterproof - foolish. Kilvington was a bit quiet, although the rain brought in 4 Swallows, and the 2 Egyptian Geese were back again. By the time I reached Cotham Flash, the rain had stopped, and there were 4 (and perhaps 5) Yellow Wags in the horse paddock to the south. Despite looking promising, no Ring Ouzel -  I'm sure there'll be one next visit! The field pools held 2 Ringed Plovers, 2 Oystercatchers and a Redshank, plus the usual Lapwings - one bird is definately incubating. The Flash itself held a few Teal and a couple of Gadwall.
