Pitsford am

Hello

Birds around the dam area of Pitsford Reservoir early this morning included the pair of Ruddy Shelduck, two Yellow-legged Gulls, a Raven, three Common Sandpipers and three juvenile Grey Wagtails.  The reserve section of the reservoir (north of the causeway) is currently holding large numbers of water-birds but apart from four Little Egrets I didn't see anything of note there this morning.  A couple of short ringing sessions on-site produced two Pied Wagtails and singles of Garden Warbler, Lesser Whitethroat and Marsh Tit.

Regards
