Still very quiet at Kingsbury water park with no sign of any summer migrants.
A quick scan of Cliff pool revealed a male Smew in amongst the 200+ black-headed Gulls, which quite a few people were over looking.
Just goes to show that its worth checking every bird.
The Tern island on Cliff pool was having a bit of a makeover with lots of strimming and burning going on and the inflatable scarecrow back in position.
Hopefully the lesson has been learnt, that it needs to stay in place for at least 3 weeks after the first sighting of a Tern, as last year the island was over run by Black-headed Gulls before the main arrival of Common Terns.
