A week ago I moved back onto the Somerset Levels near Glastonbury, where it looks like i'm going to be based for foreseeable future. I've mostly been occupied working on a couple of rather interesting projects which I hope to share on here fairly soon. Of course, i've also spent plenty of time out birding in the fantastic area that is the Avalon Marshes. Here's a few highlights
 |
| The Pied-billed Grebe is still showing well at Ham Wall RSPB, a month after it was first discovered |
 |
| Great White Egrets are all over the show, hopes are high for breeding again this year |
 |
| Ducks everywhere! |
 |
| The first migrants are starting to come through, with Chiffchaffs breaking into sporadic, and somewhat half-hearted song |
 |
| With the Meare Heath lagoon being drained, we have a cracking bit of wader habitat which is already pulling stuff in. This Black-tailed Godwit was ringed in Iceland 2 years ago. |
