20th April

Visited Whixall Moss for the first time at lunchtime where the highlight was a cracking near adult Marsh Harrier which flew north at 12:15 (probably the first I’ve seen in Shropshire!); it was a glorious day with plenty of displaying Curlews, soaring Buzzards and singing Willow Warblers.   A walk along my little section of the River Teme at Leintwardine in the afternoon where there were pairs of Little Ringed Plovers (seen mating), Common Sandpipers and Mandarin.
