My first birding today in 8 days. Unfortunately, the patch was pretty quiet with little of note - 2 each of Curlew and Redshank, plus a Grey Wag, but low numbers of wildfowl and few passerines. And it was rather spoilt by seeing a Black-headed Gull on the silt lagoon, with blood covering its head and breast and a fishing lure stuck in its bill which it evidently couldn't shift.
So I remain stuck on 135 species for the year - still one behind last year. Will I see a Siskin before the year is out..?!
