Nene Washes
I spent some time here today, it is a brilliant place to visit, so much to see. The Washes are currently flooded so that brings a different perspective to the area.
Of course all the usual ducks were present, and a good size flock of Black-tailed Godwits and Lapwings. A single Marsh Harrier and Red Kite were seen.
Along the bank from the car park five Stonechats were busy feeding. A Kestrel was hunting, often coming down and pulling out a work to eat.
Of course key species to see here are Owls, and I was fortunate to see Long-eared, Short-eared and Tawny Owl today.
The Whooper Swans were mostly out feeding on the fields, along the A605 I cam across several, small groups, plus a flock of 86, then a field full c400, busy feeding - but no Bewicks with them. A small flock of Pink-footed Geese, c30, was also in one field plus five Roe Deer.
