More Rain !

As it was pouring with rain this morning I again went to the hide at Bowling Green Marsh to do some birding in the dry , there was again a large selection of bird in large numbers with 200+ Eurasian Wigeon , 50+ Northern Shoveler , 100+ Northern Pintail , 30+ Common Teal , there was also a bit of a build up of Tufted Duck with 7 male and 3 female .
Just like the other day there was large numbers of waders with 200+ Pied Avocet , 200+ Black-Tailed Godwit , 70+ Bar-Tailed Godwit showed well and with the marsh now covered in more water they were a lot closer to the hide than usual , Dunlin were everywhere you looked so you could easy say over a 1000 , 50+ Northern Lapwing & 2 Grey Plover .
