Here's this week's sightings blog from Ham Wall. Better late than never. Plenty to catch up with as always: bit.ly/3xVtybO
We didn't get to Ham Walls until 12.15 and I had to wait 30 minutes for the rain to stop. Didn't take very long from VP1 to see my first Bittern which was quickly followed by a pair flying over the reeds. Walked down to Noah's and there were 7 Hobbys in the air. No Swifts though.
Hairy Dragonflies appearing across the reserves now at last!

2 each of Hobby, Bittern and Garden Warbler seen at Ham wall today. The first 2 spp were admittedly distant. ( both bitterns in one pic.... honest)
The long staying Spotted Redshank at Catcott arrived on 4 March then it had lots of company, still here on 22 nd. April but there's nothing here now except for a couple of dozen duck, it's pretty lonely now, that's 6 weeks and note the colour change! the weather hasn't improved
@AvalonMarshes @SomersetWT @levelsbirder @AndrewKirby18 @DrSal1955 @BBCSpringwatch Wagtails on Tealham Moor. Not the best of days to chose to visit, light rain and wind. However, still a delight to see these beautiful birds.
A cropped video still-frame from this morning at Catcott Lows of the Spotted Redshank, shows why it was once called Dusky Redshank.

Right place, right time today at Ham Wall, when @glastobirder found a Whinchat and Redstart at Ham Wall. Great birds for the site, with the Redstart being a first for the reserve for me. My personal HW/Shapwick list now stands at 157 species
