River Stort: 10.05.10















As a precursor to giving a talk to the local RSPB group on the Natural History of the River Stort, I spent a few hours along the river updating photos of the views, with a few bird efforts as well.
A super 2 hours with 36 species recorded. A hobby over Wallbury was a highlight along with my first local swift, a high sparrowhawk and 2 soaring buzzards.
Warblers were in good numbers with chiffchaff, willow warbler, white throat, sedge warbler and reed warbler all present but the highlight being a cetti's warbler; my first for this patch.
Photos included today show several river views, a grey heron, long tailed tit (looking worn out from clearly feeding young) a female whitethroat, a greenfinch and a large carp.
