The Lincolnshire Bird Club

My wife and I spent a very productive hour and a half at Deeping Lakes N.R. earlier this afternoon. Highlights below:

Common Terns 8+
Arctic Tern (1 positively identified - possibly more)
1 Common Sandpiper
50+ Sand Martins
20+ Swallows
20+ House Martins
4 Yellow Wagtails
4 Swifts
2 singing Whitethroats
1 Lesser Whitethroat (off the reserve singing from hedge across the river)
Blackcaps
Sedge Warbler
2 singing Reed Warblers
2 Willow Warblers
1 Chiffchaff

Generally in SW Lincs lots of Yellow Wagtails and hirundines now as well as 5 species of raptor.

I forgot that we also had one Garden Warbler at Deeping Lakes - another first of the year for me.
