Warm, dry and sunny, NW 2 - Superb morning to be out in the field commencing at Lade and Kerton Road pits where the highlights were six Goldeneyes and 150 Teal on south lake, two Marsh Harriers and a Common Buzzard over the willow swamp and a Great Spotted Woodpecker and a Cetti`s Warbler by the ponds. Moving onto the bird reserve where I had decent views of the mobile juv/female type Long-tailed Duck on New Diggings. It is best viewed from the end of the Outland Trail viewpoint, with the sun behind you, and not from the causeway road (there were six cars parked there this morning) which is extremely dangerous and where the power station police will move you on. The Hume`s Warbler was again reported in the bushes around the Obs garden/moat (PE).
