Sutton Bingham - Sat 10 Oct

An hour on the patch late afternoon produced a Little Grebe on West Pool and a male Stonechat on the fence to the south of West Pool. A quick drive to the southern yielded two female-type Mandarin and three Tufted Ducks (two females and a male). I then took a walk from the Canoe Club to the car park and back. A nice large flock of Long-tailed Tits contained a couple of Chiffchaffs and a Goldcrests, but nothing rarer and three Meadow Pipits were also noted.
