Lewis and Carter cloudy and cold at Maple Lodge

Lewis and I took a stroll around the reserve and soon Geoff Laptop was telling us what he had seen.
Of note a patch of Snowdrops were evident just inside the reserve.
We  moved on to Rotunda no sign of Laptops Water Rail just some wrens in the phragmites,we
did manage Green and Great spotted woodpeckers.

Muncjac had been grazing on exposed trees and branches and 2 raptors seen were Red
Kite and Common Buzzard.
A few more duck present notably male Tufteds and pairs of Mallard in courtship
display.On the conservation side splendid work being carried out by out ageing
volunteers.
Well thats all for now look out for end of February notes soon
