Hello
A little frustrating that the superb aurora display up and down the country was difficult to see locally due to low cloud and murky conditions.
Summer Leys LNR seemed to be the place today with a Tundra Bean Goose, five European White-fronted Geese, an adult Caspian Gull, a Glossy Ibis, three different Marsh Harriers, at least eight Common Snipe and sixteen Golden Plovers.
A Glossy Ibis, a Cattle Egret and two Egyptian Geese were at The Embankment, Wellingborough.
At Thrapston Pits the drake Ring-necked Duck was on Town Lake and the pair of Red-crested Pochard and a drake and a female Greater Scaup were still present. A Marsh Harrier was at Stanwick Pits first thing.
Two Water Rails and a Peregrine were at Stortons Pits.
Six Crossbills were at Chase Park Farm, Yardley Chase at lunchtime today.
At least fifty-seven European White-fronted Geese were at Stanford Reservoir today and other birds were two Caspian Gulls and sixty-five Great Black-backed Gulls in the roost, five Goosanders and four Great White Egrets.
A few Bramblings were audible in the Brampton Valley below Hanging Houghton today and a Siskin was mobile on the west side of Walgrave Bay at Pitsford Reservoir. Five Tree Sparrows were at Rectory Farm, Old.
Regards
