Ham Wall RSPB - Sun 9 Mar

A couple of hours up on the Somerset Levels after breakfast in lovely sunshine was most enjoyable today. Despite not being able to locate a Firecrest that had been present for nearly a week I still had a rewarding visit, with the highlight being a small group of about four Bearded Tits, of which at least one male and a female showed really well. The usual duck species were still present out on the water and Spring felt as if it was well and truly in the air with at least four Chiffchaff singing. As I returned to the car a Bittern was booming away and rounded off a fairly short but pleasant trip out.
Year list for 2014 now at 141 species.
