A post-work visit now that British Summer Time has arrived to search for migrants, specifically Little Ringed Plover and Sand Martin, none of the latter but four LRPs on the Pura Foods peninsula were a welcome addition to the year list; lots of territorial behaviour; parallel running and song flighting noted; it's a private site, secure and wardened since last years illegal rave so the birds have a good chance of success. it was a fairly brief visit with four each of Canada Goose and Shelduck, 40 Common Teal, 28 Tufted Duck, a Common Sandpiper and three Pied Wagtail the only other sightings of interest.
