Quiet day in the county

Hello

Seemingly a quiet birding day in the county today and despite multiple observers at Pitsford Reservoir little of note was seen.

One of the Yellow-browed Warblers was still present at Earls Barton Pits near to the entrance of Mary's Lake and at times showing well. Three Great White Egrets were on the complex too. A Scaup was reported on Summer Leys LNR near Rotary Island. A Grey Wagtail was in the Brampton Valley below Brixworth.

An incredible fourteen Smew were seen at Eyebrook Reservoir this afternoon.

A Stoat seen near to the A508 at Hanging Houghton today was in almost complete white ermine winter dress!
