Slimbridge foray

29 Aug - An early morning visit to Slimbridge in the hope of seeing a few passage waders close to the hides - fairly quiet generally for migrants with the fine nights, but Green Sandpiper, Snipe and Blackwit seen on the Rushy along with an obliging Grey Wagtail, and a good count of 6 Greenshanks in the high tide roost from Zeiss Hide, along with Ruff and Avocet, amongst the Blackwit flock.
