2 Buzzards, Snipe

Not a great deal around this morning, though fairly pleasant in the sunshine.  A couple of Buzzards were soaring high over Turnough, being harrassed by a couple of Carrion Crows.  In the hide, the heron was perched in its usual spot to the right hand side, and a Snipe flew across and landed in the reedy margins on the far side, promptly disappearing.

Apart from that it was very quiet.  A Robin and a Great Tit briefly posed for photos, and Starlings were feeding in the grass, finding moth larvae (I've yet to identify this one).
