Photobirding

Today's walk was more about giving my new camera a whirl, than the usual crawling through the undergrowth with scope in hand. Birding highlights were: a Bullfinch and a couple of Redwing at Dawson's Corner; a Water Rail feeding on the mud of the newly-drained willow area at the Mill Lakes, five or more Common Snipe on Mud Island, a Common Gull, several Herring Gull, a Great Spotted Woodpecker by the Double Dates at Mill Lakes; a flock of around twenty Waxwing flying at rooftop height over Moor Road near the Main Entrance to Mill Lakes towards the Mill Lakes; a Nuthatch at the Wildlife Garden Feeders, and two Lesser Redpoll opposite in the trees of Bramley Wood.
