Wednesday 9th March

I haven’t been able to get over to Shustoke this week yet but I have had a couple of interesting birds in the garden. There was a Tawny Owl on Monday evening calling in the garden. I have had up to 5 Tree Sparrows, a Reed Bunting and a Brambling in the garden in the last few days.

However, the best bird was this morning when I had a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker which is my third record in nine years. I will try to get over before the weekend and see what the Reservoir holds as things should start to heat up soon.
