Sand Martins

Several over Noah's Lake pm today. Also, fieldfares still roosting in the area, plenty of duck still on the lake and the colour ringed GWE almost in full breeding plumage! Welcome to the overlap of seasons.

Re: Sand Martins

A male and a female Goldeneye were present on Noah's Lake this morning but not a single Pintail did I see!
