5th February 2026 seen by Nigel Driver (via WhatsApp)

WeirWood in light rain produced Great Egret at the west end. A Water Rail was feeding under the feeders with a male Pheasant. Don’t think I’ve seen those two feeding together before. On the water Little Grebe and 7 Wigeon plus 7 Great-crested Grebes. On the feeders the usual crowd were entertaining with their squabblings and the heronry was very busy.
