    The Cettis was firstly showing very well in front of the first hide in the flattened reeds at 2.45. The bird then moved to the right of the hide into the tall reeds, occasionally giving a brief call. Still present at dusk.

    Also present 5 Green Sandpiper, 2 Oystercatcher, 1 female Merlin and a Barn Owl on the way back to the car.
