Essex Coast

On Friday July 27th David took us out to Abberton Reservoir and Mersea Island on the Essex coast.
The causeway at Abberton had a number of both Yellow and White (Pied) Wagtails but the area near the visitor center was being redeveloped and was a little disappointing except for a Corn Bunting along the fence. I also finally caught up with Green Woodpecker and Skylark.

The trip to Mersea island was very productive for waders and we had an enjoyable walk along the mudflats.
