With the westmidsalldayer due to take place on Saturday, I had time for a quick afternoon visit to Morton Bagot to get a feel for what was about.
There were few encouraging signs. An increase in Snipe (11), and Teal (25), while 75 Lapwings and two Green Sandpipers are still in residence on the flash pools. The scrape creation continues in the pool field, and I'm starting to see what they are trying to do.
The piles of earth are an unexpected habitat for migrants, the highlight being a Wheatear, and two Whinchats.

Those two will be very welcome for Saturday's list.
