Pitsford by boat

Hello

Eleanor popped up to Harrington Airfield this morning and briefly espied the male Ring Ouzel near the first bunker.

Whilst at Pitsford Res today, Dave Francis and I took a boat out in order to carry out some remedial work on the floating tern rafts. On our way back we checked on the Cormorant colony and various floating nests of other species, and took a few photos of wildfowl whilst doing so (please see below).

Eleanor scoured the Brampton Valley below Hanging Houghton this evening, and two Wheatears were located in the bean fields.

Regards
