Carlton Marsh

Today's highlights were Little Egret, Kingfisher 2, Meadow Pipit 2, Grey Wagtail, Canada Goose 11 and male and female Tawny Owl calling at dusk.
A Barn Owl was hunting the Western Meadow from 19.35hrs.

A pair of Little Owls have bred, on or near an old lorry chassis in a stone recycling yard nearby for at least 5 years, including this year. However, after massive reorganisation of the piles of stone, to make more room, it looked as though they had gone. No, they are still there, so maybe we can keep watching them for another 5 years.
