Friday 12th sept Ingrebourne Valley

Birds at the scrape today were;  16 BTGs, 2 Green Sandpipers, a good number of Snipe,  and plenty of Lapwings,  numbers of wildfowl are increasing day by day,   A Hobby was seen hunting again, as were a Sparrowhawk and 2 Kestrels,    2 Spotted flycatchers were up and down the hedge next to St Georges where the concrete slabs are late this afternoon,

  there were some other small birds there as well but just could not get a clear look at them,  this is a good area worth watching with plenty of shrubbery containing lots of dog rose with hips
