At Shawell lagoons this evening there was a single Cormorant and 23 Canada Geese. Surprisingly there was a 'pair' of Wigeon, like the Goldeneye, occasionally some will stay the summer, this pair are likely to move on, but we'll see.

17th May - Sunny start, cloudy pm, wind SW, freshening and becoming cloudy
A quick look see at Stanford reservoir this morning produced all the usual species and the drake Goldeneye. I wonder how long it will stay here, occasionally one will stay the summer. A couple of Common Tern sat on the railings, we lost the nesting rafts in a storm a few years ago, since then they have looked a little unhappy with no raft for resting or nesting. Only one Peacock butterfly and a few 'whites' were seen, I hope the butterfly numbers increase soon, as they seem quite low in this area.
