Birding Group Visit to Burton Mere Wetland and Inner Marsh Farm 17th September 2012
The Second date of the new birding term for our group was to Burton Mere Wetlands. In the main hide we could see a large number of Greylag and Canada Geese. There were high numbers of Lapwing around thirty Black-tailed Godwits. A single Little Grebe was there and a small flock of Shovellers. Mallards were plentiful and from the side window of the hide we could see four Buzzards in the sky and a single Marsh Harrier. There was also a Black Swan but the best sighting was undoubtedly a Bar-headed Goose that was keen to give everyone good views.
