Mating Avocets at Top Hill Low

We had a great day yesterday at Top Hill yesterday with some additional migrants to add to the year list (Sedge and Reed Warblers).

Butterfly's seen included Orange Tip and Speckled Wood, 'White's' seen in the distance.

Another great sight was a grass snake swimming across South Marsh West lagoon.

On South Marsh in front of the hide a pair of Avocets were close and I was fortunate enough to get this sequence. I have omitted some of the sequence, well you only need so much excitement don't you!
