Been away for a week to Mallorca, and spent most of it at Salbufera, what a place, Lrp Kentish plover BW Stilts all with young or on eggs all living a couple of feet apart. Birds on every bush. Spotted flys, Nightingales Cettis Sardinian Warblers all the usual and more and then i come home and ZIP.
How Depressing, no sign of Lrps at a few of my sites Common Sandpipers numbers well down on last year. Pied Flycatcher that was singing for a female for 7 weeks has gone . And out of 50 nest boxes put up only 10 used. 6 of those by Tits.
Andy was out looking for nests on Saturday and came across 1 lone SEO chick. Also 2 broods of LEOS failed, chicks found drowned in nest.
Bloody weather!!!!!!!.
