Re: Avalon Marshes autumn 2015

Near 2VP this morning, and viewed from the path over the bridges (good suggestion, as the main body of birds is not visible from the railway path), 80-90 Blackwits. After a time, we saw 40-50 head to another location further from the path, so numbers may be difficult to get accurate. No other waders seen.
4 Marsh Harriers in 2 pairs seen, 3 hobbies, 6+ Great White Egrets, 1 Bittern in flight, 8+ buzzards.
