I had a very brief stop at Cheddar Reservoir last week and hadn’t considered adding a blog; that is until today when it hasn’t stopped raining all day.
The reservoir was very low – due, I gather, to algae growing on a feeder riverGreat white egretGrey heron with an early supperThere were a couple of black swans at the reservoir and they were quite aggressive to the mute swansGreat white egretCommon ringed plover to the rightThe grey wagtail came closer than all the other birdsGrey heron and great white egretLittle stint was the best of the birds for me
I’m sure there was a lot more to see but, as much as I would have loved to linger in the warm sunshine, I had a tight deadline to meet.
Thanks Martin, I wondered if you’d been going out much as you hadn’t posted in a while! You get a lovely variety of herons and egrets near you but I agree Little Stint is tops.
