A brown hare was reported at the weekend but no location given. We don't see them very often.

Pochard drake (they are nearly all drakes) by Jim Stevenson, |
Birds: tree-creeper, goosander, bullfinches, buzzard, kestrel, red kite, grey wagtail, all from the Heron Trail. Pochards and goldeneyes have returned as water level is up.

Linnet by Phil (PK) Smith. |
On the arable fields near the quarry, just after you cross Southoe Brook, there is a huge flock of linnets. Trevor Gunton estimates 250+. Its worth looking for other finches and buntings there.
