The forecast was for rain and that is what we got! Only five birders walked the 3.75 miles of lanes and fields. However the birds were present. We saw Housemartins nesting and flying around, a few Swifts and Swallows also. Blackcaps and Chiffchaffs were in double figures singing lustily. On the lakes were Mallard, Moorhens, Mute Swans, and a pair of dabchicks. Also a Cormorant and two Grey Herons in the trees. A Green woodpecker and a Pheasant called. Altogether we saw or heard 35 species, and the beautiful scenery was enjoyed by all. (Thanks to Sue and John for leading). Sue and John Prince
