DOWN TO EARTH AT MARSH LANE.

Popped down to Marsh Lane again on Thursday morning getting there not long after 9.00 AM.With the excitement of the Waxwings of the last few days over back down to earth was the order of the day.

The GBB Gull was showing again on the CP pool.

Tried to turn this Gull into something interesting but I think it's a LBB Gull.

In the far distance 13 Goosanders were on the far bank.Took a heavily cropped shot of most of them.Also on the far bank were a couple of Redshanks.

Pretty quiet on the RW pool.All I spotted was another Redshank and a distant Common Gull

I then spent over an hour in the river hide listening to the Cetti's Warble singing out almost continuously and sometimes pretty close but did not get even a glimpse let alone a shot.The Goosanders came a little closer enabling me to get some distant shots including one of a couple of males in a punch up.
