The weather was pretty dreadful at North Cave Wetlands on Tuesday. The immature Sedge Warbler was very confiding from the Turret Hide.

A sunny day at RSPB Blacktoft Sands. In the morning there was a stunning male Ruff at Xerox with 4 smart Spotted Redshanks. The Spotted Redshanks stayed for the afternoon. A female Cuckoo hanging around First Hide, and she may have been spotted around Singleton a little later. Plus a confiding Sedge Warbler fledgling, an immature Heron and for a change the Marsh Harriers were coming closer to some of the hides.
