Another afternoon visit but nowhere near as productive as yesterday. I picked Ellie up at 4.30pm and we drove up to the reservoir and took a walk from the hide along to the car park and back again. Whilst there was little quality today, there was some quantity, with a flock of forty Woodpigeons flew from the trees opposite the hide. As we walked along a flock of thirty-eight Fieldfares flew over heading east and fifty Cormorants were roosting in trees on the far bank opposite the Canoe Club.
A male Sparrowhawk passed over the water and as we reached the car park some twenty or so Redwings flitted through the trees. On West Pool we saw a couple of Teal and a few Tufted Duck were hiding in the waterside vegetation.
Our return trip to the hide produced nothing else of note, though another two Teal were viewable from the hide.
