Kingfisher and record Greenshank numbers

A total of 84 Greenshank were on site today, apparently a record number for the reserve. Two Ruff were still present and a bit of scope scanning of distant bramble bushes revealed a Lesser Whitethroat, two Whitethroats, two Sedge Warblers, six Chiffchaffs and four Blackcaps.

The Peter Scott hide overlooking the Deep Lake on the Millennium Wetlands offers fantastic opportunities to get a good Kingfisher shot. On Tuesday I got lucky when one perched up within three or four metres in perfect light. Here are the results...
