An unexpected but very pleasant detour on route to work today to see this elegant Lesser Yellowlegs at Isleham Washes. Unfortunately it was flushed by a Sparrowhawk and flew off NE. Hopefully it will come back #UKBirding

Isleham. Talk about a design classic - is there a better-looking postbox than this in the country?

A lovely summer-plumaged Bar-tailed Godwit just dropped in to Isleham Wash. Only the 3rd site record, after birds in April 2022 & 2024. @cambsbirdclub.bsky.social

I note that it’s been a month since I last visited, the very full, Isleham Wash. It’s now totally dried out.
1 Lapwing and 4 Kestrels was about it.

Finally made it out this p.m.
Had a feeling it was about time for Avocets to arrive at Isleham Wash, it was; and there were 7, plus a Snipe.
A typically early arrival date for these birds. They should peak around 6 weeks time & then disperse.
A suitably monochrome year-tick for a monochrome day.
