Another lovely day ... Surely Spring is here now !!!
Soon the smell of freshly cut lawns will be wafting around .. Or in my case, freshly swept patio ...
Some good stuff from Old Moor today ...
Great news as the Cetti's warbler was seen over by the reedbeds .. I think that this little guy is forgotten at times but it is a special bird for us and the fact that it's still hanging around is brill :-) There were 4 snipe seen here too ...
The Mere had 6 goldeneyes and the males were seen displaying by throwing their heads back in order to try and impress the females .. I might practice that !! Also seen were 7 goosanders, wigeons, teals, gadwalls and lapwings ..
The Wader Scrape had a little egret (another great bird), a redshank, 2 oystercatchers, a green sandpiper, 2 common gulls and a lesser black-backed gull ..
There were yellowhammers, tree sparrows and reed buntings seen on the Tree Sparrow Farm ..
The Bird Garden was busy with a willow tit, blue tits, great tits, chaffinches, greenfinches, stock doves and a female sparrowhawk all being seen here ..
So there you go friends .. That's all for today :-)
Have a great evening everyone ..
