Bonjour everyone,
I'll set the ball rolling on this one. Today I went out to Etang de Lachaussée in la meuse, department 55. This is one of my local patches that I frequently visit.
Scores on the doors today:
Indisputed highlight, 2, dare I say, a pair of Penduline Tits???? One was singing, so was obviously a male, one was just calling so was maybe a female. I have seen them here before and previous form is that I hear them, then see them for a few seconds, then they get up and fly for at least a kilometre or more. These 2 seemed to be holding a territory and were constantly calling and singing in the same vicinity. Also Purple Heron seen in flight and the usual Black Kites, Marsh Harriers, first Nightingale and Swifts of the year......
