A morning visit revealed a mass of waterfowl particularly on the Mere with at least 385 Wigeon, 360 Teal, 200 Gadwall, 51 Greylags and a couple each of Shelduck and Goldeneye. No wonder the Peregrine continued to make frequent raids. A Buzzard was over Bolton Ings, but far more interesting was a Merlin seen at both Broomhill and Old Moor.
Two Bitterns were seen at the Reedbeds tonight when at least six Water Rails were calling. The Cetti's Warbler was not reported today but was apparently seen on friday.
