MORNING AT MOULDEN HILL

 A rather dreary forecast so I made the most of the morning's brightness with a visit to Moulden Hill. I did see a Red Admiral and a damselfly, but mostly birds today. Species seen included chiffchaff, kingfisher, goldfinch, magpie, reed warbler, sedge warbler, canada geese and two  goslings, mallards, (one with two ducklings, another with just one,) coots, (one with four, another with two,)
