Dix Pit, Old Shifford, Cote and Standlake Pit 60

Very quick visits to first three sites. Last 90 mins daylight Pit 60

Dix

Heron chicks in two nests. Two chicks repeatedly stabbing each other in head in turn. Unsure if sibling rivalry or each was expecting the other to regurgitate food! Also what looked like a cormorant chick in a Cormorant nest.

Looks like a lot of duck cleared out from here. Didn't see smew, garganey or scaup or even a pintail (could've missed them).

Old Shifford

The 5 Whooper Swans still with Mutes on minor road towards Cote.

Cote 

Only 1 golden plover with 100s of Lapwings.

Pit 60

Duck numbers down here too, though still quite a few pintail. The two chiffchaffs remain, one near Shifford footbridge other around North Hide.
