Yesterday
The Eton Wick flood has grown again. A green sandpiper flew in and stood preening on the far shore. A pied wagtail buzzed it and it rushed around quite madly, wading into deeper water and swimming, before calming down and proceeding to feed.
The flood on the common has appeared again.
Two grey wagtails zoomed around calling and a Cetti's warbler made wren-like noises (only louder) from the undergrowth. A chiffchaff with plenty of yellow in its plumage was glimpsed in brambles. A tree has fallen on the bank of the Roundmoor Ditch near the houses.
