There had been a Pectoral Sandpiper reported from Belvide so off we went to try our luck.

What a great way to start the day we saw this Reed Warbler singing in front of the first hide at Belvide.

This was soon followed by great views of a Kingfisher, sorry I couldn't get a picture though it flew before I could get my scope up.

I finally caught up with the Little Owl though, Great a year tick.

After a long search we finally found the Pectoral Sandpiper (after being shown where to look) its on the shore between the swans in the picture. if you've gat a magnifying glass you might just see it. Yet another year tick.

We found these Red eyed Damselflies thanks to Steve Nuttall who told us where they were.
