From Monday April 8th p.m.
A visit to Anglers Country Park near Wakefield yesterday afternoon, where it was
overcast with the odd bit of sunshine.This is a big lake with Wintersett Reservoir close
by which is another large body of water.We made our way to the main hide seeing
Cormorants,Oystercatchers,Gadwalls,Tufted & Goldeneyes from here. Continuing our
walk we saw a
Kestrel perched in a tree and a large number of
Wigeon with some
Coots
feeding on the grass near the lake. We also saw a
Gt C.Grebe,Canadas & Mute Swans as
we walked round,an enjoyable walk.

Be nice to have that as your local patch
ReplyDeleteYes I know what you mean Brian, our local reservoirs struggle in comparison.
ReplyDeleteStill I'm sure we'll all still be our looking to see what birds are about.
