Birding Group Visit to Marbury Park : 10th March 2015
The birding group visit this week was to Marbury Park. It was a pretty quiet affair really. Wes searched the reed bed for Bittern but to no avail. Budworth Mere had the usual Cormorants and Black-headed Gulls on posts and the water held mainly large numbers of Great Crested Grebe and Tufted Duck with just a single Pochard mixed in. At the feeder station there were the usual birds that we had already seen at the bird table at the mere hide; Tits, Nuthatch and the like. In the woods we found a Great-spotted Woodpecker but really the high points of the day were as we left.
