Everlasting pea

Lade - cloudy, occasional drizzle, sw 3 - A tour of the local patch produced no change to the usual birds apart from a few Swifts and Yellow Wagtails shipping out south, although two juvenile Marsh Harriers were on the wing hunting the long reed bed.
  A check of Burrowes was also similarly samey with plenty of wildfowl and Common Terns on site. From Firth hide Little Ringed Plover, Common Sandpiper and five Dunlin amongst the throng of Lapwings, Oystercatchers and gulls. On the walk down to Hanson hide the Narrow-leaved Everlasting Peas were in full bloom either side of the track. From the hide two Bar-tailed Godwits, three Ruffs, two Redshanks and a Great White Egret amongst hundreds of ducks, gulls and Coots.
