It's tough going at the mere at the moment, especially when I think back to this time last year when we had an American Black Tern and lots of excited birders. Still, even last year it was pretty quiet in the run up to the appearance of the ABT, and I suppose it's times like these which make me appreciate more the good times and the appearance of unusual birds. I still visit the mere almost daily, in fact I've been twice today, but there doesn't seem a lot of point in reporting the same old things day after day. I wonder what the next good bird at the mere will be. Perhaps it will appear tomorrow.......
