Young uns

Middleton industrial estate

Two quite well grown juv Lapwings being watched by their parents on the spit at the model boat pond.  They nimbly avoided three clumsy Mute Swans which were arguing about who should be where on the spit.

Also two fledged Pied Wagtails accompanied by an adult.

Elsewhere
Spoonbill at Leighton Moss on the Allen Pool.  No sign of the reported Little Stint.
