Another quick couple of hours after work.Stopped at Fazeley bridge to check the height of the river to find that it was starting to break it's banks. A few Canada Geese, a couple of Mute Swans and the commoner dabbling ducks were present here on the flooded pasture.
On to Broomey Croft where the water level on Cliff pool is above all of the islands, however the ice is receding and there was a good selection of ducks including double figures of Goldeneye.
Also back amongst (had it ever left?)the Cormorants was the red ringed bird J/W which I seem to recall was ringed in the Netherlands in 2001.
Have got Tuesday to Sunday off this week, so there should be more birding done but the forecast doesn't look good with Heavy snow for Wednesday followed by rain for 2 days!
