Male and female Great Spotted Woodpecker and Green Woodpecker at breakfast time plus the regulars and three Long-tailed Tits, I hope they turn up for the bird count. While walking the dog a Little Egret was up a tree preening and resting. There are two that have been in the area for some time is it just possible they may nest or will they depart for an established colony, time will tell. The Egyptian Goose is still without its mate in the field next to the Egret’s tree, both in our area. I decided to go and check out their pond, no Egyptian Goose but four Canada Geese and five Mallard, and I saw two Fox just a field away in broad daylight! (JP)
