The new sign leaves no doubt as to where you are! |
Just a quick midday visit to the Reserve today. Sunny but blustery weather and very wet underfoot. Here is what I recorded:
Birds:
SC209694 A Grey Heron flew up out of the water as I approached the hide.
Song Thrush; Great Tit. 2 x Blackbirds heard calling to each other, one from
each side of the path.
SC209693 female Blackbird
SC208694 Chaffinch; Song Thrush; Robin heard but not seen
Other:
SC208694 2 x Gorse Shieldbugs in gorse bush
SC208694 Hogweed in flower
SC209695 solitary toadstool in grass.
the usual photo of the hide to record the weather conditions |
the damp meadow is certainly damp at the moment! |
I helped plant these willows many years ago now- they were just little slips about 2 feet high! |
