Thursday 7th May
All quiet still on the Meadow front with just a single COMMON TERN of note. The usual warblers still in Burgess Field. Plenty of swifts about today and there are quite a few linnets around, both on the Meadow and in Burgess Field as well. A decent mixed flock of turnstone, sanderling and dunline were at Farmoor today and there was a large influx of birds at Christchurch Harbour yesterday so let's hope that there is finally some decent wader movement about to start before the floods dry up altogether!
