More damp cloudy weather with drizzle pm, 5C, light- steady SW
Stanford Reservoir; I visited here in the afternoon, not the best conditions and therefore fairly quite. Now the Reservoir is full it is less favoured by Teal, only 7 today. A single drake Goosander came in late, looked a bit nervous, at least the ‘banging’ has stopped so the birds may settle more. I counted the GreyLag and Canada flock, 320 and 130 respectively.
I waited for the Gulls to come in to roost, numbers are building again, not scarcity today. A Barn Owl came out, thankfully having survived the recent snowy weather, and was hunting, great watching it in the gloom.
