Saturday 24th August a.m.
A bright sunny morning with a start temperature of 17°C as I made my way through the Clough. I didn't see many birds for a while then a couple of
Blackcaps and
Willow Warblers started me off well then the highlight of the morning as I approached the tunnel under the old railway line a couple of
Spotted Flycatchers and above on the fence line in the distance a
Wheatear. Through the tunnel and at the other side a
Whitethroat was seen and another couple of Spotted Flycatchers and a couple of
Jays.At the reservoir there was a
Coot, Moorhen and
Cormorant until 53
Canadas flew in to join them.
