West End :- a dawn arrival produced both Great and a Little Egret around the busy heronry. The male Goosander was amongst the collection of duck plus 2 Mandarin today. On the feeders still Marsh and a Coal Tit and overhead a Red Kite. A Great spotted Woodpecker was drumming in the c/pk whilst a Nuthatch was investigating the nest ox there.

Dam End :- a few Jays and 3 Mistle Thrushes on the dam whilst on the generally quiet water a single Common Gull plus a Black-headed and a gorgeous adult Mediterranean Gull that gave its presence away with its call, it eventually settled on the aerator. No idea what it’s doing here.
