Helping Stu with the count today. As I was getting out of my car lots of pink-footed geese were flying overhead. Redwings and fieldfares in the trees near the car park.
Still plenty of berries for them to eat. I started out at Ousefleet hide.
Still frost on the ground. Due to the sun, I could not see any birds on the lagoon to the right of the hide.
Lots of teal and lapwings on the islands.
Marshland lagoon had a single female goldeneye and lots of shovelers.
Reedling lagoon had wigeon, gadwall and a little grebe.
This grey heron was at the edge of Townend lagoon. Not many wildfowl on the last two lagoons, possibly because the marsh harriers were very active again.
