Sutton Bingham - Fri 16 Dec

An early morning visit to the reservoir today and the recent cold snap meant West Pool was completely frozen over and much of the southern end of the reservoir was also iced over. A walk from the car park towards the Canoe Club produced four Tufted Ducks with a further eighteen off the dam, a very good count for the reservoir these days. Other wildfowl present today included two female Shoveler amongst the Wigeon flock and a pair of Mandarin were at the bottom of the car park.
