Sand Martins

Again very little to see around the reserve, apart from a few Sand Martins flitting back and forth just beyond the reserve. The Redshank was present on the far bank, but didn't come close enough for photos.  I took a few more distant Sand Martin flight photographs but it's quite difficult from the hide because of the height of the viewing slots, and there's no visibility from the path now because of the trees.
