Trimley Update

Last night I was on the reserve well into darkness.  I counted 70 Linnets going to roost in the reedbed, I heard a Barn owl screaming, a couple of Little Owls calling and several Water Rails squealing.  I also saw a Jack Snipe.

Today, two Little Stints were still present on the summer flood; other birds of note included 6 Mediterranean Gulls, 3 Greenshanks and on the beach there was one exhausted female Sisken feeding that had made landfall during the mornings bad weather.  The bird was feeding on Narrow-leaved Ragwort seeds.
