would put me back on the road to recovery. My girlfriend dropped me at the
reserve and i spent most of the time sat comfortably in Nel's hide.
As always at Marshside there was a lot to see.
Golden Plover c650, Black-Tailed Godwit 1000+ plus a few Ruff. Lots of the commoner
wildfowl; Pintail, Wigeon, Gadwall and Teal, one of which had been killed by an immature
Great-Black Backed Gull, something i've seen several times here.
I counted 39 Avocet on the reserve. 32 from Sangrounder's with 7 from Nel's. The
volunteers were preparing the nesting areas for them. Amazing to think that you had
to travel to East Anglia to see these birds in the eighties!
