Hello
The amazing weather continues!
At least a few of the Crossbills have maintained a presence at Irchester Country Park during the week and were still present yesterday (Thursday).
Also yesterday it seems that a Cattle Egret was photographed in the Nene Valley, possibly near Wellingborough but the full details are not known. Today (Friday) and Neil Hasdell saw one of the Great Northern Divers at Pitsford Reservoir, about 200m west of the causeway car park at about 10.30am.
Some more bird ringing recoveries have filtered through during the last few weeks which included a Chiffchaff ringed at Linford Lakes on 2nd Sept 2018 which was then caught again by a ringer operating at Chalk Farm, Willingdon, East Sussex 24 days later, this warbler having moved 160km in an expected SSE direction.
