Back to Fly Flatts

 

                                        1 of 4 Oystercatchers

                                        4 Curlew present
                                    1 pr Ringed Plover


                                Male
                                Female

                                    5 Herring gull over >NE


Another decent weather condition morning at Fly Flatts with full cloud on a N>2 at 1 degree with good visibility.
             Nothing untoward this morning with the usual species seen on the last few visits. The pair of Ringed Plover had moved to the opposite bank today whilst the Bentley workers had the weekend off. I went to see what it was they are doing and they are planting heather on the SW shore for some unknown reason.
          The 4 Oystercatchers were very noise moving around the reservoir bankings whilst 4 Curlew flew over in the direction of the wind turbines dropping down on the moor. The only thing skyward was 5 Herring gulls heading >NE whilst Canada goose numbers continue to rise.
           On the way back 29 Greylag geese were were in the Delvers field at Wainstalls.
