Expecting waders and terns

A quick 09:15 trip to LFGP produced 3 Little-ringed Plover, a pair and another adult, 1 Common Sandpiper, 1 Oystercatcher, less than 20 Lapwing, 3 Little Egret and the usual Common Terns and BH Gulls.

With thunder rumbling to the SE as I type, I remain hopeful of other waders such as Wood and Green Sandpiper and maybe a Black Tern dropping in at BSL, where I did a 2 minute stop before coming home. As I got out of the car I could hear 2, probably 3 Nuthatch calling in the Willows near the humpback bridge and am confident this was a family of at least 3.

2 evenings ago, I visited LFGP and saw nothing new, but took an arty shot of the spangled sunlight through the trees opposite the recently trashed garden.
