A walk around the local patch this morning produced a locally unprecedented count of Shoveler with 56 birds present on one of the farm reservoirs. Unsurprisingly when I checked the latest 2014 Bird Report this count was comparable or even surpassed some of the more major wetland sites in the county. Other birds present were;
Gadwall - 2 Mallard - 14 Pochard - 5 Tufted Duck - 6 Little Grebe - 3 Coot - 2 Moorhen - 1
A Chiffchaff also showed well in adjacent bushes.
Another farm reservoir held 2 Wigeon along with Mallard, Tufted Duck and Coot
