Hello
A very blustery if mild day but we now hold our breath for something of a deluge tomorrow it seems!
At least four Ravens were swirling around in the wind this morning at Hanging Houghton but it didn't stop the Marsh Tits and Nuthatches coming for their morning treats below the village at the Brampton Valley Way!
An adult Yellow-legged Gull was again off the Sailing Club at Pitsford Reservoir this afternoon and a drake Smew was reported in the Scaldwell Bay. At least two Siskins were in Scotland Wood on the Kelmarsh Estate and two Lesser Redpolls were noted at Stanford Reservoir.
The Pink-footed Goose was spotted again at Ravensthorpe Reservoir and an adult Caspian Gull and a Great White Egret were at Hollowell Reservoir.
An Otter was showing well from the Rotary Hide at Summer Leys LNR this lunchtime after not being reported for a while, and a male Merlin put in an appearance there this morning. Birds at Eyebrook Reservoir included six Smew and a drake Scaup.
The Pintail was still on floods at Bozenham together with eighty Wigeon, several Gadwall, a Shoveler and a hundred Teal - at least there are some winners when our valleys flood!
Regards
