OTHER NOTES
1. Mr Gudgion of Harlow Common reports that
Kingfishers have returned to the Roding at
Stanford Rivers. They have not been
recorded for some 2 years. He has also
reported Little Ringed Plover nesting in
the Harlow area.
2. There have been no reports of Nightjars
from the usual Essex locality.
3. Hobby - reported again from an Essex
locality.
4. A number of instances of late broods of
Blackbirds and Song Thrushes have been
received. A Black Bird was seen feeding a
young fledgling as late as August 15th and
it is thought that this bird reared at least
4 broods.
I would like to thank all Members who have sent

Meetings. Records are always welcome, and the
interesting ones published. The following have
