With the recent morning high tides a good variety of waders have been pushed up on the Saline Lagoons including: Grey Plover, Ruff, Greenshank, Bar-tailed Godwit, Redshank, Dunlin, Knot, Black-tailed Godwit and Curlew. Up to 6 Spoonbills have been seen along with impressive numbers of Little Egrets and a brief flyby Great White Egret that flew down the estuary. It seems that the Cattle Egret has finally left after spending over 2 months on the reserve. It has been over a week since it was last seen so please let us know if you see it again.
