Saturday 2nd March a.m.
A cloudy morning with a few sunny intervals and a temperature of 7°C as I made my way through Cullingworth and on to Hewenden viaduct over looking the reservoir.It was good to see the return of two
Oystercatchers on the bank of the Reservoir, these were with fifteen
Canadas. There were a couple of
Herring Gulls on the dam wall with several
BH Gulls, a couple of
Cormorants were in the water and nine
Teal were feeding in the reservoir overflow.
When I got to the top end of the reservoir things livened up when I spotted a
Treecreeper and a
Nuthatch in the wooded area.On the water were more Teal, four
Goldeneye, two
Wigeon an a
Goosander. Others included
Coot, Moorhen, Mistle Thrush and
Pied Wagtail.
