Alan checked out the gravel pit this morning and found 3 Little Ringed Plover present. Potential for breeding as a pair seen mating.
Little Ringed Plover first nested in the UK in 1938 and have successfully spread through England and Wales. This colonisation has been attributed to an increase in their preferred gravelly habitats - man-made flooded gravel pits, reservoirs and quarries have provided them with just the right breeding grounds.(courtesy WT).
2 Teal also present.
