17th April

Walked along the river again from Buildwas to Leighton and back in the afternoon where it was pretty similar to yesterday but there were 4 Little Ringed Plovers in the large, bare field at Buildwas – my first of the year, a Green Sandpiper, just a single male Redstart and a single drake Pintail following a group of Mallard around trying to blend in by harassing the female Mallards just like the others were doing!

                There was another male Redstart near my ringing site at Wyke in the morning while another Cormorant flew south over Wyke in the evening.
