Hello
Eric's regular visits to Titchmarsh Reserve at Thrapston continued today and he saw the two Great White Egrets, six Little Egrets, a Turnstone on the long island and an adult Yellow-legged Gull.
A ringing session at Linford Lakes this morning provided 65 captures of 16 species, 59 of which were new birds. Warblers included a Sedge Warbler, 17 Reed Warblers, 3 Blackcaps, 2 Whitethroats and a Chiffchaff. There were plenty of tits and common birds, perhaps the most noteworthy being two Song Thrushes, two Reed Buntings, a Goldfinch and a Treecreeper.
Scanning from the Old Scaldwell Road Feeding Station at Pitsford Reservoir this evening yielded views of a single Garganey, the five eclipse drake Red-crested Pochard and a roost of nineteen Little Egrets on The Point. One or two Raven could be heard calling in trees on the north side of the Scaldwell Bay.
Regards
Neil M
