Nothing new on the patch today, Thursday, but at least 2 Bitterns still at the mere, 1 flew from north to west reeds and then 1 flew from south to north reeds. Also 2 Chiffchaffs, 1 singing in west bay and 1 in hedge by farm. With Chris Grimshaw. |

Afraid not, don't know who saw them, apparently they were flying east at 10:55. I was in the hide at the mere at the time. |
