14:00 > 15:30
12c Sun, broken cloud, feeling cold.
The cattle have returned making things 'interesting' to say the least. As well as looking skywards its a case of watching what's under your feet too.
Certainly a Wagtail day. As well as steadily increasing numbers of Yellow Wagtail (now double figures) amongst the Pied are two White Wagtails The Shelduck pair continue their aggression of last spring and try to drive all from the water.
Whilst it would be good to see the pair of Gadwall and the sprinkling of teal remain I don't hold out much hope although one Mallard did try to give back as much as he got in a fine bit of aerial combat. A Common Buzzard was long the canal embankment
while the only waders of note were a pair of Little Ringed Plover. It may have been me but Green Sandpiper evaded me today.
