25th April '09 North Cave Wetlands

Warm, sunny, breeze.

North Cave Wetlands


Reedbed Lake

Yet another fine day, another nice sausage butty, and another first. This run can't last so I'm milking it for all its worth. Not a lot to get excited about around the ponds and the main interest was in the land birds. A lone Red Kite heading towards the hills to the northwest was a sight to behold as it avoided the harassment of a couple of Carrion Crow. Then as on out last visit here a Willow Warbler not far from where we saw it before.
