Sutton Bingham - Fri 11 Sep

A visit after work was pretty interesting, with a drake Shoveler being the highlight. The bird was seen in flight from Hyde Farm coming in from the west it flew towards the dam, but a quick drive round to the Fishing Lodge failed to relocate it.
However, the horse paddock near the Fishing Lodge hosted a mixed flock of finches with at least half a dozen Linnets and forty Goldfinches with smaller numbers of Greenfinch and Chaffinch. The field also held five or so White Wagtails amongst a few Pied Wagtails and three Grey Wagtails were on the dam itself.
A quick check of the southern end proved fruitless and nothing was on show from the northern causeway either.
