Horton Bank Country Park

1010-1105 hrs started off foggy but cleared up a bit. Nothing exceptional but it made a change to give it a try.




1 Grey Wagtail ditto Jay, 6 Moorhen, c15 Coot. 3 each Canada and Mute Swan. Several small gull sp. & a single 1cy large 'does your head in' type gull.



Judy Hogg & Co turned up which is why the waterfowl were getting stuck in. She told me the Swans were residents not movers and produced just one cygnet this year.

Lots of tree varieties in this location but to no avail; only a few woodland types present. 2 Blackbird, 1 Goldcrest, 2/3 LTT, Blue & Gt Tit.

A loudly calling GSW was out back on arrival home, the first I've had here in quite some time.
