RSPB Leighton Moss : 26th March 2015
We decided to take a trip up to Sizergh Castle for a Hawfinch spotting morning and decided to throw in a couple of visits to Leighton Moss RSPB reserve. The last time we visited here in similar circumstances we had had three fantastic “life ticks” – a “redhead” Smew, a Snow Goose and a Glossy Ibis. This time we weren’t so lucky but the Marsh Harriers at Leighton Moss are always worth a visit anyway and there is always a chance of a rarity.
