Reading the Oxon bird blog today, it amazes me to see they have 4 Marsh Harrier at Otmoor, yes of course it's a huge site, big reed beds, etc, so did they breed there this year, I don't know yet, but with just one July record of this species over LFGP 27th 2012 (09:00) and then next earliest is 4th August 2007 (11:20), we should be keeping looking up from now on.
Since they do travel in rain too, we shouldn't be put off by weather like we are having today....it's Easterly winds, so in principle stuff could be out there now, shame I have to go shopping.
I'm not saying give up looking for waders and terns and I will be putting time in to look thru the tit flocks as I said before.
