Summer birding

Hello

At least two Tree Sparrows (a juvenile and an adult) were at Rectory Farm, Old this morning - hopefully a second brood might be on the way.

At Pitsford Reservoir there were two drake Wigeon and a Great White Egret in the Scaldwell Bay and a British colour-ringed Black-headed Gull is breeding on one of the rafts there and has offspring.

Two hunting Barn Owls were in the Brampton Valley below Hanging Houghton this evening and a Little Owl and a Barn Owl were near Little Houghton.

The adult Yellow-legged Gull was again at Summer Leys LNR today and a Cuckoo and an Oystercatcher were in situ at Stanford Reservoir.
