22nd May 06.  08:45-10:30hrs  Wet, rain. 12DegC.

Still very quiet with little being seen. The pair of Garganey have gone! Plenty of Sedge & Reed Warbler in the far phrags & reedbed (best viewed from main hide I find, although a scope is preferable). A few Little Ringed Plover, Green & Great Spotted Woodpecker (I've heard Lesser Spotted a few times now, incl. in the car park, just not been able to see it yet - definately got a nest hole over in the Cound Stank woodland!!). Willow Warbler, Common Whitethroat & Blackcap all seen/heard well this morning. Over c.200 Swift today.
