Spring passage at Farmoor....






15 April - A late afternoon visit to Farmoor, excellent in the ongoing NE winds with 9 Little Gulls (5), including 8 superb summer-plumaged adults, feeding over F2 with at least 5 Common Terns (4). On the causeway 5 + Yellow Wagtails (1,2) were feeding with several White Wagtails (3). A large number of hirundines were also feeding over the reservoir, several hundred Sand Martins together with a few House Martins and Swallows. A Red Kite was over the sailing club. Photos JM.
