Grove and Oare

3rd September

No boys this week so I paid an overdue visit to Grove this morning where it was unbelievably quiet. I sat in the Feast hide for a while only seeing a few eclipse mallard and gadwall, the best sighting being a grass snake. Quiet on the walk around so went home and finished off some turfing in the garden.



pm.

After a trip to the dump I called in at Oare meeting Tim Gutsell and Bernie at the lay by. Usual birds on view including the long-billed dowitcher, managed a distant shot and a couple of curlew sandpipers were the only birds of note.
