Reed Bunting, Emberiza schoeniclus |
I
visited Angmering Woods yesterday and enjoyed the warm sunshine on
the rides. The main woodland paths are still very muddy and Celandines and
Primroses were flowering. Afterwards I visited Swanbourne Lake, where I saw a Red Admiral, and Arundel WWT where water levels
appear to have returned to normal. The highlights a clutch of Mallard ducklings, a Reed Bunting and a Kestrel on a
distant bush seen from the Lapwing Hide.
