On Sunday June 15th David and I headed to Bradwell on Sea to an area with a bird observatory next to a chapel founded by St. Cedd. The farm fields near the coast held several Corn Buntings and Yellow Wagtails, and Whitethroats sang in the hedgerows. The footpath was too far from the beach to see much but we saw Shelduck and Redshanks.

Later in the day we went to Hanningfield where Red-crested Pochard have been breeding and are definitely countable birds. We found a pair of these from one of the hides and generally did well with both woodland birds and lake species.
