Woolston Eyes had been closed for a long time because of the pandemic so we were glad to be able to get back there and get our annual Black-necked Grebe experience. As it happened there were very few on show for us and we nly managed to get one pair.
It seems that there were around 20 onsite that day but they seemed to elude us. We had a very enjoyable morning managing also to get in a small group of Bramblings. It was a good birding day and we followed up by some lunch at the Stretton Fox
