First day of March

Hello

The Ring-necked Duck and the Scaup were both at Ravensthorpe Reservoir today and Stanford Reservoir hosted a Stonechat, two Oystercatchers, a Great White Egret and four Goosanders. Eight Egyptian Geese and a Shelduck were at Blatherwycke Lake today.

Summer Leys LNR today recorded a female Red-crested Pochard on the main lake, three Great White Egrets, two Oystercatchers and about two hundred and fifty Golden Plovers.

A female Peregrine was chasing the Fieldfares and Starlings at Harrington Airfield this afternoon with a Woodcock and four Grey Partridges and a Weasel also being present.

A second active Raven nest was confirmed today in the centre of the county but a third nest used last year seemed quiet so more fieldwork required! A single Raven was seen at Pitsford Reservoir this afternoon.

Regards
