Warm and sunny for the short visit and quiet overall, however there was one interesting episode. I could hear a chuntering Acrocephaline warbler at the far end of the lake. I wrongly presumed a Sedge but two local stalwarts said it was a Reed. Sure enough on closer approach and a bit of Xeno Canto for assistance, I had to agree it was indeed a Reed Warbler. As is usually the norm despite the racket the bird stayed invisible.
A pair of Tufted Duck was the best the lake could offer. As I was leaving a single LBBG circled and moved on. Also a single Mute Swan, 1 each Blackcap & Chiffchaff singing.
