Hello
Strong gales again today and with heavy rain this evening which has initiated plenty of amphibian activity.
Despite spending much of the day out and about it was a struggle to find anything new. The most obvious passage birds were plenty of gulls and small numbers of Meadow Pipits and wagtails.
Two Ravens were at Staverton today and singles were noted at Hanging Houghton and between Spratton and Teeton. Most paired female Ravens will be on eggs in the nest now, the males foraging for them both.
A Woodcock was flushed at Scotland Wood (Kelmarsh Estate) and one of the Great Northern Divers was visible at Pitsford Reservoir this afternoon, north of the dam by 'The Holly Tree'. The usual second calendar year Yellow-legged Gull was also just north of the dam.
Regards
Neil M
