Far Ings Nature Reserve: Sightings for 14-05-04
Hello Everyone,
Was originally going to Epworth Turbary with a birding pal, but he was too ill to go, so went to Far Ings instead, don't ask me the logic, there isn't any. Quite few people there, pity there wasn't more birds there. But it was an enjoyable day out. Arrived about 14:00 and departed at 16:15. This is what I saw and heard: Mallard - female with 11 ducklings Mallard - female with 6 ducklings Coot + 2 juvs Cormorant - 3 Shoveler's Great Tit Blackbird Magpie Pochard Swift's Sand Martin's Canada Geese Greylag " Crow Jackdaw Chaffinches Robin's Mute Swan's G-C Grebe's Tufted Duck's Common Tern - 2 Collared Dove's Moorhen Heard a Bittern booming. A Canada Goose got too close to the Mallard ducklings and the mother chased it off. Regards Last edited by intellectual : Friday 14th May 2004 at 18:29. Reason: To include the date |
