Bretton Park

Sunday 3rd March
Lots of Grey Heron activity on the lakes islands with a total of 63 nests counted of which at least 47 are occupied. A Little Egret was by the Lower Lake spillway and at least 3 Cormorants were in the trees - both species potential additions to the breeding list of birds in the Barnsley area.
No sign of the Great White Egret though.
Shoveler 25, Teal 23, Pochard 10, Goosander 3, Great Crested Grebe 3 were also on the lakes. A total of 16 Nuthatches were counted around the lakes.
