Thursday 6th March a.m.
A glorious sunny morning with a temperature of 8°C as I set off for a walk around Hewenden Reservoir where there was the usual mix of c250 Gulls. A couple of Grey Wagtails were in the overflow of the Reservoir and the Buzzard was in it's usual area and there were c15 Cormorants. These were all seen as I walked across the Viaduct, when I went down Station Rd there was a couple of Pied Wagtails, turning back to continue round the Reservoir I heard the sound of distant geese and soon after a skien of 121 Pink-footed Geese flew above me and carried on into the distance. I went through the wood round the top of the Reservoir and by the time I came back to a good view of the water all the Gulls had moved on. Others seen were Teal, Tufteds, Grey Heron, Kestrel, Robin, Canada, Coot, Moorhen and Starling.
