Had a nice stroll around the Res, I noticed all the waders
were very cautious of anything in the Sky?
Right at the far end I found remnants of a LBBGull, many
primaries, tail feathers, head feathers & a few bits of wing joints.
Also there was the remnants of an Oystercatcher egg nearby!
There was still some yellow "yolk" inside, & looked like predation,
rather than parents disgarding.
I don't know what the predator is, but it has been feasting since
Tuesday night!.
Hardly any shore left at all since the recent rain,
just about everything is under water.
The Red Grouse on the hill were fighting/squabbling,
probably over territory.
The Ringed Plover is still around & excellent close views can be had.
Here are a few more shots of it, bit better quality this time,
much better light, but it just wouldn't pop over to the sunny area.
Ah well .....
Shine those boots, polish your keys, find your
membership card & get up there & check this
little fella out.
It may stick around for a few more days?
