My son provided the early morning wake up, so decided to dash down to LFGP and after 20 minutes at 06:47 I heard a Green Sandpiper, which came into view from the North and landed just to the left of the hide, but spooked immediately and flew ESE then veered South somewhere over the golf course and lost it around 06:51.
In the NE corner was an LRP and a Common Sandpiper, the Great Crested Grebes were finally off their nest, but no sign of any chicks.
Later I learnt that 3 Linnet were drinking on the waters edge of the East bank, but chased off by LRP's, this and the Green Sandpiper were also new for July.
I also saw Willow Warbler near the yellow gate on Lavell's, meaning we jumped to a new July high count of 90, still missing Nightingale and Ring-necked Parakeet.
