Lapwings were in the surrounding fields,a couple were also on the island & some came to the edge of the Tarn for a snap.
Pied Wags were seen & a walk
up the road to where there was a muck heap a few Juveniles were seen along with a couple of
Linnets &
a couple of
Oystercatchers.Also on the island was a
Moorhen with a young chick &
Coots were seen
