Maple Lodge and Stockers before the rain

An overcast mild morning with a little sunshine greeted me at Maple Lodge. Lime green catkins fluttered in the wind as a Great spotted woodpecker came to the feeding station.From the Rotunda hide up to 17 Common  Teal . I spoke to Tony Hulls briefly before notching up some more duck.

Of note Pochard and Shoveler ,on adjacent Lynsters farm 2 Egyptian geese obliged amongst Canadas and Greylags in the paddock a nice surprise was a wintering Chiffchaff
