Wed 12th Aug 20

This mornings early start was punctuated by an unsuccessful trip to the Naze for the Icterine Warbler. Well done Darrel !.

More luck on my return to the Haven with a good number of Wasp Spiders located and the Water Vole was very obliging  at the Dipping Pond (see Haven Wildlife page).

From a very quick visit to the hide:

2 Dunlin, 2 Green Sands, 1 Common Sand, 1 Knot, 26 Teal + Avocet, Oystercatcher, Lapwing, Blk. H Gulls, Grey Heron, Cormorant, Shelduck as of late.

On leaving site as I drove passed the 5 bar gate a bird flew across the road from the orchard area that looked interesting, after an emergency park and grabbing my bins I managed to locate a Pied Flycatcher moving between the small bushes on the greensward before being lost to view back on the other side of the road.
