Finally one of the Great Crested Grebe pairs has started to build a nest. On the same day I saw a Coot pair with 9 small chicks, an adult Moorhen with at least 1 chick in the dipping pond, a Little Egret was sitting in a tree at the far end of W lake, a Common Sandpiper flew across W lake in the afternoon. A Ring Ouzel had been seen early morning. A Reed Warbler sang briefly by the E lake boardwalk and 2 Reed Buntings were singing there too.
