Tony Seagrave - Hi all yesterday at Wall Farm Saturday 9th August

Little Egrets in the morning flying into the back of the marsh
also seen a
Green Sandpiper,
Pete Jordan - also saw the 3 Little Egrets in the afternoon
along with 2 Green Sandpipers and a brief view of a Wood Sandpiper.
Martin Grant - I visited in the evening at 19-00 to 21-00 with
no sighting of the 3 Little
Egrets in the first hour and a half, but I did record a Hobby
flying low at
the back of the marsh, 4 Snipe, a Teal, 2 Green Sandpiper,
40 Lapwing, 2
Grey Heron, a Buzzard was on a telegraph pole and on the
wires were 20
Goldfinch including 18 juveniles, 4 Linnets, 2 Yellowhammers
and 20 Stock
Doves. I was giving up and leaving at 20-30 and decided to have
one last
check on the pool to the right of the hide where Pete had seen the 3
Little
Egrets, between the branches of a willow tree I caught a glimps
of the 3
Little Egrets then 3 waders also on the marsh, 2 Green Sandpipers
and the
Wood Sandpiper that Pete had seen earlier. I watched for 10 minutes
until
the waders flew to the left and as I was returning to the hide to record
my
observations the 3 Little Egrets flew off to the north at 20-45, look
