BEARDED TITS again

Walton Lake - 2 BEARDED TITS at about 2.30pm, a female seen well in cut reed stems on left immediately before the viewing platform, then another not seen so well flew across the path that was probably a male as I thought I caught blue grey on its head. There was much calling as they crept deeper into the reeds. Previously Chris Coppock and myself had spent about an hour waiting for a sighting. Also there several WATER RAIL; I saw one in front of the screen, about 30 rather mobile SISKINS and an American Mink.

Fenny Stratford - 200+ waxwings around Wickes and Tescos
