Called on way home for a few hours.

Asked at visitor centre if the owls were showing, the little had been but the long-eared hadn't. I was told where they had been yesterday.

In total saw 32 species of bird, the following were the highlights:

Little Owl - 1 [sat on post in the meadow behind the centre]
Black Swan - 1 [flying over the lake directly east of visitor centre]
Tree Creeper - 1 [ next to visitor centre]
Tree Sparrow - 4

Was told that the hide at Linn Dyke had been replaced, the former one had been burnt down, they now have a metal one and I went in and checked it out. One good thing there is no glass, it's all metal!

Maybe if any in Lincs gets burnt down they could replace it with a metal one, it's certainly something for those in charge to think about.

Regards

Pleased you saw the little owl. Pity the long eared wasn't about. On Tuesday had my best ever views - preening in full view.
