A morning at Rutland Water, Rutland - July 27, 2012


I spent most of my time in sandpiper hide overlooking lagoon four.  There were four Little Egrets feeding on the lagoon and I saw two Red Kites, a Buzzard and an Osprey over Burley Wood.  I found two Little Ringed Plovers, eight Ringed Plovers, a single Golden Plover, five Dunlin, a Common Sandpiper, Green Sandpiper and a Greenshank on the lagoon.  There were also six Yellow-legged Gulls and twenty-five Common Terns.
