16th May 2009

Got to Earlswood sometime after 8:00 am, spending a short time at the causeway before meeting John Yardley to do some birding elsewhere. Common Terns were present as usual, but I didn't count them properly. As John took me home, we came along the causeway but nothing of particular interest was seen. I returned to the lakes on my bike during the late afternoon, but didn't see what I was hoping for; though I did note 15+ Swifts at the causeway and the Mute Swan was still at Terry's Pool.

Once again, no Black Terns were seen by me, or reported, at the lakes.
