Good selection again today at Sandbach Flashes. Not in this picture but Yellow-Legged Gull, Dunlin and Bar-Tailed Godwit were yearly firsts with Pintail and Little Grebe Lifetime Firsts.
Not all very clear but with the Heron can be seen Shelduck, Coot, Moorhen, Black-headed Gulls, Snipe, Wigeon, Teal, Cormorant and Great Black-backed Gulls of various ages, (I think).
Lapwings, Canada Geese, Greylag Geese, Mallards and Redshank added to the tally with plenty of small birds seen as well. Long-tailed Tits, Blue Tits, Great Tits, Goldfinch, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Reed Bunting, Blackbird, Chaffinch, Fieldfare, Robin and Sparrows.
Last but not least Magpie, Crow and Rook repesented the Corvidae.
