Saturday 14th March a.m.
A cloudy start to the day with a temperature of 1°C on my arrival at Leeshaw Reservoir.With Danny not feeling too well I was birding on my own, the first birds seen were
Canadas,Greylags,Curlew &
Pheasant.I was surprised to see a male
Wheatear on the dam wall the earliest I've seen one, could only manage a record picture as it stayed some distance away.Also pleased to see a pair of
Redshanks, got a good ID on them & a few pics,I then went up the track to spread some Nyger seeds.
Other birds were
Pied Wagtail,Oystercatcher,Lapwing,Cormorant & Wren.N.P.
