On Tuesday we risked Welton Waters despite rain threatening most of the day. One of the highlights was a very confiding pair of Yellow Wagtails, which allowed us to walk directly underneath it. A Yellowhammer was singing nearby. Other birds either seen or heard included: Kingfisher, Marsh Harrier, Cetti's Warbler, Linnet, Sedge Warbler, Reed Warbler, Whitethroat, Lesser Whitethroat, Blackcap, Oystercatcher, Shelduck, Swift, Swallow, House Martin etc. Not bad considering the threat of rain, but cameras remained in cars.

No photos were taken on Wednesday, for some reason. The following day was a lot brighter and we trekked out following the zigzag route to Wheldrake Ings. Other birds we saw included: Garden Warbler, Kingfisher, Marsh Harrier, Heron, Little Egret, Gadwall, Skylark, Lapwing, Sedge & Reed Warblers, Blackcap, Cormorant, lots of Banded Demoiselles, Mayflies, and a spectacular-looking female Broad Bodied Chaser.

On Friday the forecast wasn't nice enough for Skerne, so we decamped to Tophill Low. We saw plenty of species, 51 in fact, but the cameras remained in the vehicles. However, on our return to the car park I managed to spot a female Tawny Owl high in a conifer. She stayed up there the whole time, allowing everyone to obtain a decent view.

After the class concluded Jeny and Carolyn visited the north part of the site to watch the Kingfishers feeding their young. Little did they know that they would fledge at 5.45 the following morning.
