It was back to Spring today with some pleasant sunshine once the mist cleared. A trip to The Bandiat produced one
greenshank, one
redshank, several
house martins and a few
sand martins. Two
green sandpipers flew off just a I arrived and there were probably about a hundred
swallows feeding there but others seemed to be resting on branches and telephone wires as were others at Agris and Pont d'Agris. This whole area where the Bandiat meets the Tardoire provides plenty of insect food for migrants. The only warblers present were
blackcaps and
chiffchaffs, the latter in their dozens. A couple of
yellow wagtails were feeding in the wet meadow.
