sorry for late post

Nocton Fen Update - afternoon after work

Mute Swans 89 further down the Fen but a wide boom sprayer was in the vicinity and put up two lots of whoopers as follows ;-

7 ( two adults and 5 juvs ) and a group of 20 adults .


There was also another large gathering of all Mutes closer to Bardney bridge 121 in total . The rape fields seem to be the food of choice .

In addition to the above 5 kestrels , 1 buzzard and a little owl in the roofless barn .
