Rob Hill texted me this morning to say he had found an ICELANDIC BLACK TAILED GODWIT on the Spit at Willen Lake, 26 SAND MARTIN were split between the lakes , but moved off North , he then went on to find an LRP at CMK which flew off at 08.05.
Spurned on by this I checked Stony Stratford and then Willen , a silent COMMON CHIFFCHAFF was the highlight at SSNR
On arrival at Willen at 09.00 the Godwit (colour ringed - red on right leg , green on left leg) was still asleep alongside a COMMON REDSHANK , but woke up shortly afterwards , had a mock attack on the Redshank before departing high to the east at 09.04 , the CETTIS WARBLER still in good voice also 2 CHIFFCHAFFS singing, 55+ SAND MARTINS were hawking high over the south lake.
News elsewhere in the County include LRP at LMGP (Dave P) and WHITE WAGTAIL and first WILLOW WARBLER at College Lake (per Ben Miller)
Up to 6 CETTI'S WARBLERS are currently on territory in North Bucks (per SN)
