09:59 | Feeding on spit. I initially assumed it was a species of godwit although I wasn't sure, but my thanks go to Graeme who later confirmed it as a Redshank instead. Funnily enough, we met him earlier, before we saw the Redshank, and he mentioned that only one had been seen here so far this year! | |||

19/03/22 | Redshank | College Lake | 3 | A C Bayliss |
Including the colour ringed bird. Finally got a good view of the tarsus ring (as well as the tibia rings) which confirmed the bird's identity. It was ringed on the Orwell Estuary in 2019 and first appeared at College Lake in 2020 where it was part of the pair that fledged a single chick. It was back on the Marsh in 2021 but the nest failed, although another pair did successfully rear and fledge a youngster. So back for a third spring and hopefully will nest here again this year. | ||||
