Carlton Marsh

An evening visit produced the following - Buzzard, Grey Wagtail, 10 Herring Gulls, drake Teal, 11 Canada Goose and 8 Greylag goslings, 2 juv. Kingfishers, Gadwall with 7 young, and a new Garden warbler. That's 4 males singing from their respective territories.

Ziggy, Pete Wall has been to see the site manager of the Barratts Salters Brook housing development. The site manager James Swan and supervisor Dominic Pickard have given Pete an assurance that the Sand Martin colony will be protected during their breeding cycle and seem happy to do this. Their co-operation in this matter is much appreciated.
