Signs of the times

A post-work trawl revealed the following noteworthy things...
Pair of little ringed plover, 1 com. sandpiper, 4 tufted duck, pair gadwall, 2 little grebe etc at Freeman's Pools where, I should add, the new interpretation signs have now been put in place at both main viewpoints. A couple of locals I talked to were rather impressed though had concerns about the longevity of their current pristine (ie unvandalised) state.
Another LR plover was on The Flood though there was little of note anywhere else bar an audible whimbrel somewhere on the marsh and a peregrine over the river.
