A pleasant autumn sunshine walk to Landshipping this afternoon (doing our last butterfly transect of the season) provided very nice close views of a spotted flycatcher perched on wires at Clare House.
At Landshipping a peregrine was spooking waders - including 5 of 7 black-tailed godwits feeding on the shore. Also present were about 45 redshanks and 90 teal and 5-6 little egrets.
The still resident osprey made a half-hearted fishing attempt, but pulled out from the dive and flew back up the estuary towards Slebech. It has been around the area now for at least 3 weeks or more.
