Checking out Local Reserve's


We spent Sunday Morning at Draycote where I got much better views of the White fronted geese, they are lovely geese, also saw pink footed geese at Draycote and the Smew was still present. :)
We then went onto Marsh Lane which we have now joined my first time there look's a lovely reserve can't wait for the spring and summer there, had much closer views of the snipe from the hide there, they really are so striking, got a few photos too of them, also there was a couple of Cormorants in breeding plumage I think they look like old men with the white fur on the face there so cute I find them fascinating.



On the Monday morning we went to Ladywalk Reserve which we are also now a member of was nice to have a proper look around we spent some time in the hides, saw Water Rail again, great spotted woodpecker, Reed bunting and I finally got a couple of better photos of  Long tailed tit, also saw a Peregrine Falcon in flight, then went onto the next hide I took some photos of the Lovely 
Cormorant   :)   There was a Siberian Chiffchaff at LadyWalk near where we saw the first one, by the stream, we went to Edison Road after but no sign there of the Siberian Chiffchaff..
