Bird News

Another cold day, this time with rain thrown in for good measure!

A pair of Mediterranean Gulls spent part of the day on the Mere, along with 6 Black-tailed Godwits, several Avocets and a Common Sandpiper.

Another Common Sandpiper was in the collection area beside the main window in the visitor Centre.

Belated news from yesterday, when a Rook was in trees near the United Utilities hide. For a bird which is very common in the immediate vicinity, sightings within the reserve boundaries are remarkably rare. This is the second sighting in less than a week, so possibly relates to the same bird.
