pretty quiet at the res this evening with no rumpers just a single common sand, ringed plover (fly over), mute swan, pair of shoveler and a possible female white wag feeding 3 young. sometimes it looked fine, sometimes more like a pied, but it does possibly have a grey rump. present since the weekend. i then went down the cuckmere where there was a short eared owl over the scrape. the pair of egyptian geese with four chicks still at litlington.
