Back on the'patch'

Friday 13th October

Both the Caldecote and Mancetter walks have been very quiet. I had a single Swallow on the Caldecote walk yesterday and a flock of 30 Goldfinches on the Mancetter walk. On the Webs count at Alvecote pools there was a Goldeneye as well as the 2 Cattle Egrets and 2 Stonechats.
I also visited Draycote Water where there was a Rock pipit, and 2 Goosander as well as the long staying Little Stint, Ruff, Ringed plover and Dunlin. Unfortunately I failed to connect with the Greenshank.
