Sutton Bingham - Sun 20 Mar

Back to routine today and after dropping Ellie off at church I spent an hour up at the reservoir in glorious sunshine. West Pool produced nothing more than two pairs of Tufted Ducks and a couple of Little Grebes, so I headed on to the south of the reservoir for a decent stroll.
Despite the onset of Spring, there were still half a dozen Fieldfares present, and the waterside vegetation held eight Snipe. A single female Wigeon was seen and four Teal were also present.
Chiffchaffs seem to have arrived in numbers over the last few days, with at least five singing males heard and as many as nine individuals counted.
Before I knew it, it was time to head on back...doesn't time fly!
