Friday 11th July: Godwit still
This morning overcast but dry.
The Meadow had a much quieter feel to it after the excitement of yesterday. The greenshank had moved on and there seemed to be fewer birds around in general. There was only one BLACK-TAILED GODWIT in the usual place this morning and only a single COMMON SANDPIPER along the north shore together with the lone DUNLIN still. There were 5 LITTLE EGRETS dotted about the floods and the usual COMMON TERNS.
