all change on the farm fields

I have been surveying a piece of farmland this summer as I have mentioned before on here. The fields in question have been flooded for a while now to control soil pests but the pumping on of water has now stopped and the long dry out has started.

It has been interesting seeing what birds have used the flooded fields and of late the waders have been good, Greenshank, Green Sandpiper, Ringed Plover and more.

With the change in seasons coming and the drying out expected to take a month or more could be more interesting yet me thinks.
