A remarkable period for waders at Beacon Ponds peaked when the Red-necked Phalarope flock increased to 3 (all juveniles) on 5th September, meanwhile the Kilnsea Citrine Wagtail flock increased to at least 2 (see below). There was a nice arrival of Honey Buzzards along the coast and also inland with 3 photographed together at Orgreave.
