Moors highlights 2 little egret, common sandpiper (heard),2 Morhen chicks left of the east hide.
Ps looks like the defence cone on the concrete hide feeder needs upgrading squirrel climbed right over it.😲

Brief visit to concrete hide around lunchtime today.
Hobby showing well up and down pool. Also common tern on the raft.

However 3 common terns noted on the rails from the concrete hide.
One adult one juvenile and one presumed adult . Very harsh light.
On reviewing the pics Just realised that one adult and the juvenile were ringed. Third tern not noted as having ring. Didn't realise until now otherwise I would have worked harder to read the rings. The adult one is relatively clear but not readable in these pics. Probably already been noted elsewhere

Difficult to read those metal rings at any distance Phil. I've tried many times with BHGs at both Flashes & Moors and succeeded just three times ☹️

Is it assumed the Avocet chicken is lost at the Moors Pool?
