A quick wander round this morning produced:

Goosander - 3 (1m + 2f) my first returning birds this autumn
Red-crested Pochard - the drake and his mate
Shoveler - 5
Gadwall - 13
Wigeon - 95
Tufted Duck - 25
Great crested Grebe - 3

A Buzzard showed very well low over the lakes and trees as it was pursued by a Carrion Crow.

A roving party of 7 Long-tailed Tits and 5 Blue Tits also had a single Goldcrest in tow.

At least 2 Jays and a Great spotted Woodpecker were very vocal.


Hartsholme Park

Goosander - 1 fem showing exceptionally well along the channel towards the south end of the park.
