15-05-07 St Mary's wetland

The day started off dull then brightened up so I cycled to St Mary’s , Wheatear. Stonechats, Whitethroat and lots of Linnets on the way up a couple of Grey Partridge in the mast field, not much on the wetland 4 Turnstones , 5 Dunlin, and plenty of Gulls but no white wings, the tide was in I expected more on the pools. A Fox took a Rabbit at the far end it seems to have left the Goslings alone for now, perhaps it’s waiting till they fatten up some more !!! , they are starting to get feathers now.
I waited for the Willow Warbler to do the rounds of its chosen patch to get a couple of shots, also two Sedge near the Willows, Swallows & Sand Martins with a couple of House Martins feeding over the area.
