A STROLL AROUND THE LAGOON

When it finally looked as if it might stay dry for a while, I took a quick stroll round the perimiter path of Liden Lagoon. On the lagoon itself were good numbers of canada geese, together with mallards, gadwall, tufted ducks and mute swans. Also a great-crested grebe, herring gulls and a lesser blacked backed gull. I watched a chiffchaff flitting amongst the reeds and brambles around the edge of the water, and noticed a coot on its nest. Oh and also a kingfisher flew past...

Birds seen: magpie, swan, great crested grebe, mallard, tufted duck, gadwall, robin, dunnock, long tailed tits, herring gull, lesser blackbacked gull, kingfisher, chiffchaff, wood pigeon, collared dove.
