My first visit of the meteorological spring this morning was a pretty quiet affair. Birds were singing (Dunnock, Robin, Song Thrush (4) and Mistle Thrush, 1), but otherwise it was quiet. No drumming was heard.
Out on the reservoirs there were 4 Great-crested Grebes, 2 Little Grebes, 14 Coot, 17 Moorhen, 75 Mallards, 31 Tufted Ducks, 6 Mandarins (3 pairs), 2 Grey Wagtails, 2 Cormorants, 2 Canada Geese , 33 Black-headed Gulls (including a metal-ringed bird, that was flushed before I could get the number (!), 1 adult Lesser Black-backed Gull and 1 male Goosander.
