Carlton Marsh

A very mild 14c, with the rain, has gone some way to free up the frozen water areas allowing up to 10 Teal and a similar number of Gadwall to feed. The Whooper Swan was feeding in the Rape field again and the Mute Swan was in a wheat field on the east bank.

Also present c75 Redwings, 2 Fieldfares, pursued by a Sparrowhawk, 2 Treecreepers, Cetti's Warbler and 2 Jays. A Pipistrelle Bat was tempted out of hibernation this afternoon (Dave Standish/CG).
