Hi everyone, I am back. I enjoyed my annual fill of country music at the CMA Country Fest in Nashville. Then it was onto Vegas where I won and lost. I had a brilliant day birding in the desert and mountains. New birds included Mountain Bluebird, Crissal Thrasher, Phainopepla, Broad-tailed Hummingbird, Lazuli Bunting and Sprague’s Pipit.
While I have been away it has been quiet for birds on the reserve but we are now seeing the beginning of the autumn migration with several Spotted Redshank, male Ruffs and Green Sandpipers. Today, there was a brood of Yellow Wagtails and Cetti’s Warblers.
Good news, Barn Owls have produced 4 chicks, the first for anywhere on the Orwell in years.
