Seaforth

We had a good afternoon at Seaforth today, with a nice selection of birds. Juvenile Black Tern was possibly the highlight, but also juvenile Black-necked Grebe, Yellow Wagtail and three adult Mediterranean Gulls.

There were quiet a few waders, with two Common Sandpipers, hundreds of Redshank, a few Knot, 50 Curlew, Bar-tailed and Black-tailed Godwits as well as about 50 Common Terns.

In the morning we visited Martin Mere, which was a lot quieter, though we did see juv. Marsh Harrier and a Little Owl.
