Brandon Marsh and Draycote Water

21st September 2016

First stop Brandon Marsh. Reasoning that the huge influx on Yellow browed warblers would have not yet reached Warwickshire my main focus would be the pools. The main island on East Marsh had a long staying Ruff and a Common Sandpiper mingling with the Lapwing flock. The number of Snipe had increased since my last visit. I counted 9 but I'm sure there were many more. At Draycote there were 9 Dunlin, a dormant Knot, a drake Common Scoter and a Red crested Pochard. I managed to get a few images.
