Car trip to Potteric Carr, South Yorkshire

Saturday, 23 February 2008

This year's visit to Potteric Carr was very well attended with a staggering 24 people present. Thankfully after walking to the Piper Marsh hide we were very lucky to see a Bittern in flight and a pair of Kingfishers, which perched up close to a nest hole. Another two Bitterns were also seen in the afternoon at Low Eller's Marsh. In addition to the above species, we counted another 42, including Willow Tit, Reed Bunting and a small group of displaying Teal.
