Hobbies and Little Egrets

Lade - cool, dry, cloudy, sw3 - Another poor catch in the garden moth trap last night due to the cool conditions. However, new for the year were Straw Dot, Vestal and Green Pug.
ARC 1600hrs - At least 6 Hobbies hawking insects over Tower Pits, with more reported over the road. From Screen hide, 4 Little Egrets, 2 LRP`s, 2 Ringed Plovers, Shoveler and at least 50 Pochard. One of the egrets was filling up on small fish and frogs in front of the hide. Gullman and Plodding Birder were also on site, complete with long lenses...
