Re: Cheddar Res

cracking 4th and 5th shots,,,

Re: Cheddar Res

a large gathering of some 40 GCGrebes this am all together , and numerous singles scattered around the res' and around half dozen meadow pipits

Re: Cheddar Res

went down the lane toward the River Axe this morning, and one rather dowdy male Bullfinch visual chest was a very dull russet/brown. and 3 others audible, and 4 Jays, and very noisy at that, have seen a few singles around the Cheddar Village this week, is there an upsurge in population of this bird, usually never see one

Re: Cheddar Res

2 Jays near the far s/w area of the pond and two grey wagtails ,1 near the Axbridge gate and one near the boathouse

Re: Cheddar Res

Jays are very busy collecting acorns at the moment so much easier to see.

Re: Cheddar Res

arrival of around 8 Tufted duck ,5 Pochard among the gathering of Coots and a possible female goldeneye ,though slightly out of reach for positive id, the colour the bird was carrying a rich brown head or mauve ,the strong sun was making things slightly unsure , it seemed to be paired with another duck of just brown and white indiscriminate markings but the beak was quite long on this bird
