Post by Leonard Poxon »

5 Snipe on top lodge (but no sign of Water Rail).
Plenty of activity from the smaller birds with parties of LTT, GT, BT and CT.
4 Song Thrushes feeding on elderberries. Wren, Robin; Nuthach seem to be everywhere. Jay, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Blackbird, Chaffinch, Treecreeper Dunnock, BH Gull, Moorhen, Coot, Mallard, 5 Mute Swan, Great Spotted Woodpecker and a single Fieldfare in trees next to the car park.

Earth Stars

Pleased to see the Earth Stars have appeared again. When I last looked about 2 weeks ago I couldn't find any. Were they in the usual spot by the car park?

Yes they were between the car park and the river, most of them were past there best.
