Today's weather was again very warm and sunny so the temporary wetland continue to dry up. Migrants are still making use of them though hand at Fougere today there were fifteen or so greenshank, several redshank and green sandpiper, half a dozen little ringed plovers,one ruff,three great white egrets, one little egret, a male shoveler, several yellow wagtails and the inevitable mallards and grey herons. The visiting swans have dwindled to two.
The Bandiat continues to disappoint but an elegant spotted redshank was an unusual sight, and I heard my first nightingale song of the year.
A pair of stone curlews were in the vicinity of the eoliens near La Tâche.
