After completing the usual H&S checks at the Aire Valley reserves, I drove to Blacktoft.
I took over from Edd in reception, so that he could get on with helping the other wardens.
As you can see from the above photo of Marshland lagoon it was a grey day with the odd shower of rain.
Marshland had waders to offer
at least 6 green sandpipers and 2 spotted redshanks. There always seems to be young mallard ducklings
Reedling had a great white egret
First had the usual marsh harrier on top of a bush
Meanwhile from reception I saw this fox, walking around the edge of the lagoon
was it after the tufted duck family
Woodpigeons are often sat in the elderberry bush in front of reception, today it was a young cuckoo.
