Now, as it happens this was not my first visit of the year to the reservoir...I had dropped in on the day we got back form Cornwall and added a few bits and pieces, though the only real sighting of note was a flock of twelve Lapwing, so today gave me the chance to really work the site. To be honest there were not really that many birds around, though three Mandarin at the southern end were a nice find and a couple of adult Great Black-backed Gulls off the car park were somewhat unexpected for the time of year. A Water Rail was heard squealing near Cotton Bridge but that was pretty much it.
Sutton Bingham year list for 2020 now at 50 species.
