Waders were the main theme of the day today, with three Wood Sandpipers briefly down at East Lea, where four Golden Plovers, a Whimbrel, a Greenshank and a Snipe flew over and Little Ringed Plover and Common Sandpiper were over at the Dams. A Swift also headed south at East Lea, three Yellow Wagtails were on the deck there, while a Hooded Crow went south over Carr Naze and a Marsh Harrier went north over Muston Road.
