Monday 10th
Having had to make a made dash to Donegal on 'family business' little birdwatching was done last week other than spotting a nice group of Red-Breasted Merganser(7 mixed), five male and two female Eider and a few Common Gull, while waiting for the ferry at Cairnryan. On the other side Hooded Crow were present in good numbers.
So it was nice to get back to wondering the bank at Burwell Fen with the dogs. The weather was pretty ropey, grey and cold and sadly so was the bird watching! Small numbers of the usual waterfowl with the addition of two Egyptian Goose and two male Pochard.
A female Marsh Harrier was present as was a Buzzard.
Number of species recorded: 23
