Chiffchaff arrival

A walk around Hackney Marshes on Saturday morning revealed three singing Chiffchaffs and two singing male Reed Buntings. No Wheatears on the racecourse yet, though a small increase in Meadow Pipit numbers indicated some evidence of migrant activity. At Passage House a scan of the gulls produced a good count of 10 Lesser Black-backed Gulls, and waders included singles of Snipe, Greenshank and Common Sandpiper.
