Turnstones at Shustoke reservoir

Tuesday 29th April 2014
In between picking up prescriptions, sending off samples and other geriatric time fillers I visited Shustoke Reservoir this morning. Max was there and put me on to the adult Black Tern sitting on the floats some way off shore. It was while we were chewing the fat that we noticed 2 waders flying along the west shore and then round to the far shore line. It was still quite gloomy and we lost sight of the birds as they flew low down to the far end. Uncertain as to whether they had landed I went for a bit of a look round but could not relocate them.
