28th July..... Sand Martins.

Not much time to spare today, had a quick visit to Little Missenden where a Sand Martin joined a group of 10 House Martins hawking insects low over a crop field.

A little Grebe was nearby on the River Misbourne, where this Moorhen sat quietly on her nest.

Down at Shardeloes 2 juvenile Pied Wagtails were being fed by their parents on the cricket pitch,  4 more Sand Martins hawked insects over the lake. Apart from 3 Herons & an independent juvenile Great Crested Grebe, not much else about on a windy day.
