29th January - sunny am, (high) cloudy increasing pm, light-mod NW, 7C

Bittesby Country Park and Mere Lane Lake area; afternoon.

Four Stone chats were found, three females and a male, I suspect there is another male somewhere as I always have seen two.



In the thick field vegetation two Reed Buntings were feeding and Skylarks and Meadow Pipits kept flying up.

A Red Kite was over the lake area, and a Kestrel was hunting, a Buzzard was on look-out (the blue in the photo is not sky but side of a warehouse!).

A Great Spotted Woodpecker and c30 Redwings in the hedgerow.  A Pheasant called from near the old railway track.

At the lake a drake Pochard, four Tufted, five Shovelers and two Little Grebes.
