The 5 Gadwall have been present for a week now which
is very unusual. Nearly all records are of one day visits as Gadwall
do not generally find the reservoir to their liking. Previous to the
5 birds there has been a single male bird seen regularly since the
begining of September. |

The adult Mute Swans are investigating the reeds as though they are
thinking of nesting yet this year they don't seem to be chasing off
last year's youngster as they have done in the past. |

Kevin Harris: Snipe and Common Gull
The reservoir was more than half frozen so the Grebe were concentrated
in one area. Presumably the numbers have been boosted by birds frozen
out of smaller ponds. 63 is equal to the record number of Grebe seen
in 1979 |

I haven't seen the female Wood Duck since
November 27th last year. At that time I was seeing her almost daily
at the south end. She surely hasn't been hiding away at the north
end all that time?
