2 of the 3 Whoopers #UptonWarren Moors pool this morning. Harassed by Mute Swans initially but eventually settled after flying a few tines. #WorcsBirds
A Knot (presumed juv) dropped in at #uptonwarren Flashes this morning. A rare bird here these days - only the 3rd I've seen in 22 years of visiting the reserve. 2 Green Sands, 6 Curlew & 3 Stonechat were other highlights, and an Avocet was reported for a 2nd day at the Moors Pool. #WorcsBirds
