This was my view over Astley Lake this lunchtime. A light drizzle in the air. I decided to have a walk after completing the H&S checks. My luck was in, a Little Owl was at home!
Ducks were keeping close to the reedbeds for shelter.
Two Great-crested grebes had a litle dance but then went their seperate ways.
A male Goldeneye was obeying the rules!
I saw and heard my first Skylark of the year as it flew over the ridge and furrow area.
On the hillside lots of greylag and canada geese with some white fronts with them, and I am afraid that you will have to take my word that these are two grey partridges.
A pleasant 2 hours with a day list of 35 birds including 2 year ticks.
