Quail!

Had a short but excellent session before breakfast at Klarningen this morning. I coasted to a halt on the access track and was immediately rewarded with a close, singing male quail (my first for the site). The bird eventually took exception to my presence and flew a short distance away from me, giving great flight views.

A walk around the edge of the site produced a singing grasshopper warbler (another Klarningen first). Migrant waders were obvious with spotted redshank (1), green sandpiper (1) and wood sandpiper (20). Fluffy lapwing and little ringed plover chicks were nice to see.
