At something of a loose end, we decided to go to Erith and walk upstream along the Thames Path towards Belvedere, looking for Birds (especially the dear Ringed Plovers) &c.
Birds seen:
[i] Thames' Foreshore &c. in the Erith area: Black-Headed Gulls, a Blackbird, 300+ Black-Tailed Godwits, 3 Blue Tits, 2 Common Gulls, 2 Common Sandpipers, a Cormorant, 30+ Dunlins, a Herring Gull, 4 Gadwalls, 20+ Linnets, 35 Mallards, 3 Moorhens, 30+ Redshanks, a Rock Pipit, a Shelduck and 39 Teals...
[[ii] Thames Foreshore &c. in the Belvedere area: Black-Headed Gulls, 3 Black-Tailed Godwits, a Chaffinch, a Common Sandpiper (probably one of the Birds seen earlier in the Erith area), 4 Lapwings, a Lesser Black-Backed Gull, 2 Redshanks, 15 Ringed Plovers, a Robin and a Rock Pipit...
There is very little still flowering: that being said, we did see some Bristly Oxtongue, Hawkweed Oxtongue, Hogweed, Oxford Ragwort and White Dead-Nettle flowering...
