December 13th 2009

Out with Steve and Dave this morning looking for owls down the Southam Road but failed miserably to see or hear any so moved on to Wormleighton Reservoir where we had good views of the Great White Egret perched in trees on the north side, excellent numbers of Goosander (10m & 9f) for this location, Buzzard, 3 Kingfisher and 2 Roe Deer.

Brandon Marsh was quiet with only 4 Snipe and 2 Goldeneye seen on the reserve and despite extensive searching failed to see the male Brambling by the visitors centre feeders having to make do with good numbers of Great Tit and Blue Tit along with single Coal Tit and Nuthatch.
The Long Lawford Great White Egret was seen yesterday by John’s uncle and turned up again this morning but it gone walk about by the time Dave and I arrived early afternoon.
