Quick update!
Just today through the RSPB telescopes at the Nature Discovery Centre, I spotted the first sand martins of the year here! The were seen near Woolhampton last week and have made their way over to our Sand Martin bank in the middle of the lake.
Come down and see them close up through the binoculars and the telescopes. Such a delightful little bird, a great flyer, especially to have flown all the way from Africa to Thatcham!!
