Cudworth Common

The Quail that Cliff had last night was still in song this morning (06.00) around the ponds on the higher level of the Common. In fact most things were still present;- 4 Whimbrel feeding in Symphony grounds, Avocet, at least 8 Ringed Plovers and 6 LRPs, a calling Cuckoo.
Edderthorpe Flash seemed very subdued after this with;- Shelduck 2, Pochard 8, GCGrebe 1, Avocet 1, Common Tern 4, and another calling Cuckoo. Lots of hirundines fed over the water, surely someone is going to pull out one with the hoped-for red-rump before long!
