Eccleston Mere

Swallow 20
Willow Warbler 2 singing
Whitethroat 1 singing
Chifffchaff 1 singing
Blackcap 2 singing

I've never seen the mere as low as it is at present. There's a nice delta forming at the point where the stream enters the mere! Hopefully it will keep going down and give us chance of a decent wader or two over the next few weeks! Not such good news for  the grebes though, one of the nests is about a foot out of the water already, yet there is still a bird sitting. Perhaps it can't get off......
