Sunday 17th February a.m
By the time I arrived at Rodley Nature Reserve it was a bit warmer at 9°C with some sunny spells, where I started off with a couple of
Oystercatchers near the River Aire.I moved to the first hide overlooking the Lake where it was noticeable most of the vegetation had been removed from the islands.On the island there were three
Cormorants, further along I got
Gadwall, Teal, Wigeon, Tufteds and
Pochards.I heard the drumming of a
Great Spotted Woodpecker while I was in one hide and I came out finding it in a nearby tree, also seeing
LT Tit, Reed Bunting,Song Thrush and
Bullfinch.
The next hide Brought the highlight of the morning when a pair of
Kingfishers landed in a distant tree staying for a while.
