8th May

I was volunteering with the RSPB on Ham Wall so didn't do much in the way of birding. I had a quick look at the reserves beforehand though, and even that was enough to see some quality:

I'm helping out Natural England with Bittern monitoring on Shapwick Heath NNR tomorrow. I've been given the position in Decoy Hide, which looking at the weather forecast for the day is a very fortunate draw!
