29th March 2009

During a quick morning walk I saw/heard:

Chiffchaff - 3 singing in the woods.
Great Spotted Woodpecker - 2 drumming in the woods.
Skylark - 3 singing over fields.
Egyptian Goose - 1 back on the trout lake.
Tufted Duck - 4 on the trout lake (2 pairs).
Coot - 10 on the trout lake.

Total Species today - 31.
Year list remains the same.
Patch list remains at 79.

Later in the afternoon, I went over to Rainham Marshes RSPB to try and catch up with the Penduline Tits, but dipped out. I did, however, see a juvenile Iceland Gull there. Other species present were Cetti's Warbler, Reed Bunting, Chiffchaff, various dabbling ducks, Snipe, Little Egrets and various finches at the feeding stations.
