Monday 20th June

After a period of hot weather it was nice to have a cooler morning for a visit to Burwell Fen. A Corn Bunting was calling from its usual place by the car park. The lower pond by the bridge held very little, however the Tree Pool was occupied by twenty-nine Little Egret as well as three Little Grebe and the usual wildfowl.

Towards the upper pool were two Spoonbill. Sadly too far away for a descent photo but did get a couple of 'record' shots.

On the pool were another twenty-five Little Egret, six Cormorant and a single Common Tern. Another tern was on the nesting platform at Pout's Hall Lake.

Still a couple of Cuckoo showing and calling as were plenty of Reed, Sedge and Cetti's Warbler.
