Well, Wimbledon has ended for another year and yet another year without a Brit in sight of a final but at least we can get out again and here's what we saw;
5th July - Sunday
Burton Gravel Pits - at last a singing Turtle Dove, what a disaster this species is having in our area - the only one we know of but at least that's one better than Spotted Flycatcher!
Alkborough Flats - 2 Spoonbill, 2 Little Egret, 7 Greenshank, 3 Ruff, 2 Spotted Redshank, 1 Barn Owl, 219 Black Tailed Godwits
Messingham Sand Quarries - 240 fledged Black Headed Gulls, 2 adult and 2 juvenile Marsh Harrier, Kingfishers taking in fish to nest site, Avocet with juveniles
Laughton Forest - 1 Tree Pipit, 2 Woodcock and up to 6 singing Nightjars on one stretch of track
Normanby Park - 3 male Black Tailed Skimmers and dozens of Common Blue Damselflies
