Overcast, misty, 2º, light SW.
A good meeting today with representatives from BBOWT to discuss the “management plan” for Cholsey Marsh. Thank you to all those that turned up to express views and ideas for the future of the marsh. Hopefully the plans will benefit all species that are resident on or visitors to the marsh from Mammals, Birds, Reptiles, and Amphibians to Invertebrates and Plants.
More detail at a later stage.
Pretty quiet down there today with a Tufted Duck on the river and a couple of Cormorants flew downstream, the odd Fieldfare and Redwing flying over, Bullfinches and Reed Buntings heard along with a Green Woodpecker.
Other news.
In addition, some Lapwings present in the field opposite the school earlier but not later, however some Lapwings and Golden Plover on Cholsey hill seen through the mist so no idea of numbers.
1 or 2 Song Thrushes, a Redwing and 8 Blackbirds in garden today along with other regulars.
Some news over the weekend of Lesser-spotted Woodpeckers seen near Cholsey Downs. Good news!
