So happy to get another LIFER tick this weekend from my local RSPB Ouse Fen reserve with this beast of a Great Reed Warbler. What a voice. All round great day birding with bonus Cuckoo, Turtle Dove and Grey Plover. Cambs Bird Club

Great Reed Warbler on Friday singing his bits off to attract a Mrs GRW... A great burst of loud acro song - lots of fun. Pleasure to meet Rachel Lennard on her 8th visit to the bird that day... Lee Evans (LGRE) - the official account RareBirdAlertUK #Birding Cambs Bird Club

Two great evenings in Cambs! Last night, the American Golden Plover showed well, along with a Garganey. Then, this evening a Great Reed Warbler singing and tail spreading! Amazing two birds in great company. Rachel Lennard Richard Bradbury Simon Freedman and more!

I had two helpings of the Ouse Fen Great Reed Warbler today, morning and afternoon, as it was so local! 😁 Lovely to hear it sing away and it showed frequently. A smashing find by Hannah Bernie! Cambs Bird Club

High Arctic waders in their summer finest plumage at Fen Drayton this evening. I wonder how far north they'll be in a couple of weeks Graham Appleton? Well done for braving the rain earlier Ed King Cambs Bird Club

Nice morning visit up to Coveney, Byall Fen for the 1st Sum American Golden Plover - a very unusual plumage looking almost Sandplover like. Showed well but bit distant ⁦Cambs Bird Club⁩

2cy AGP still at 18.20 at Coveney Byall Fen ⁦Cambs Bird Club⁩. Hopefully these images clear up any doubt about the ID (for those who had doubts) ⁦RareBirdAlertUK⁩ ⁦BirdGuides ⁩. My 8th AGP in Cambridgeshire but 1st in spring.

Grey Plover may not be up there with an APG but still pleased to see two of 'em at Fen Drayton this afternoon One in stonking plumage Cambs Bird Club

An American Golden Plover on the doorstep at Coveney! Very nice find by David Hopkins - thanks for the county tick! 👍 And thanks Jonathan Taylor for the lift back to my car 😁 Cambs Bird Club

On Sunday, I added a couple of species to my Peterborough area year list: Little Tern (with a couple of birds south through Cowbit Wash, Lincs) and Spotted Flycatcher at Southey Wood (Cambs), perhaps the last regular breeding site locally Cambs Bird Club Lincsbirding
