Carlton Marsh

26 Teal were on the wader scrape (drakes in courtship display), with 3 Greylags, 3 Canada's and a pair of Shoveler.

A Water Rail called from the marsh, a Cetti's Warbler sang and a single Redpoll called.

Barnsley Council Countryside Rangers did a great job of of cutting down and treating regenerating Willow and Birch in the marsh last Friday.
