Greenshank, Pied Wagtail

This morning the Greenshank was still present on the reserve, although it wasn't any closer than yesterday, feeding constantly at the very back of the reserve pool.

In the afternoon, Simon had three Black Terns, but I waited until I'd finished work before attempting to see them.  Unfortunately they'd gone by the time I got there, so I had to console myself with a Pied Wagtail sitting on the jetty.
