Carlton Marsh

A Barn Owl was hunting the Western Meadow from 13.45hrs to 14.00hrs when it was disturbed by a dog walker. (Dave Standish)

A Shoveler and 2 Water Rails were seen on the main marsh and a female Shelduck was feeding on the wader scrape. Song Thrush and Mistle Thrush were singing.

Because of the lack of frost Red Campion, Hogweed and White Dead Nettle are still flowering. Blackthorn also had a few flowers. (Chris Parkin)
