Snipe, Teal, Greylag Goose

A pleasant if somewhat quiet morning with hazy sunshine. Best bird was a Snipe that flew off from the small spit in front of the hide as I walked in.  The Greylag Goose put in another appearance, and at least one Chiffchaff was singing.  

Afternoon was sunny but with a cool breeze, with little to report. A pair of Teal were feeding among the bushes along the edge of the reserve near the path, but it was very busy with people.
