Grafham Water 15 July 2012

A cool wnw breeze this morning felt more like September than mid July.
A fairly quite morning the highlight being a summer-plumaged Knot that circled the middle of the reservoir mid morning then flew off east; 3 Green Sandpipers on the lagoons; 5 Common Sandpipers, 4 Lapwings high south; 8 Yellow-legged Gulls (3 ads, 1 4th calendar year, 3 3rd calndar years and 1 2nd calendar year); 10 Common Terns (all adults); c 50 Swifts and juvenile Yellow Wagtails now up to 7 in number along the dam road.
Large Skipper on Self-heal - out in numbers today
