Little time for bird watching today,however managed to squeeze a quick trip to Maristany to see if any Barn Swallows or Sand Martins were present.
Unfortunately none were seen,however there were several surprises.
Birds seen included Northern Shoverlers, Gadwalls, Little Grebes, Little Egrets (at least 10), Moorhens, Water Rails, Purple Swamp Hens, and 2 Common Sandpipers.
The stars were 2 Kingfishers (they seem to be doing well this year) and 12 Greater Flamingos. First time I have seen them here. Several Young ones present.
As the song goes..You cannot always get what you want....But if you try sometimes ..
