250 birds of 34 species

On a lovely bright frosty morning the majority of the birds were in a starling flock of 325...

46 goldfinches, 44 reed bunting, over 900 linnets and many more sightings at Kester's Docking and Froghall...

A beautiful, calm and frosty morning, with some modest-sized flocks, including 130 lapwing. The golden plover were, of course, the highlight.

The temperature has certainly dropped, but we are still getting some bright, sunny days.

Last Saturday was International Bat Night and so, once again, volunteers and staff from the Wildlife Trust guided the public on a bat survey of Woodwalton Fen National Nature Reserve.

While we did have a bit of a rain shower on the Great Fen yesterday, late in the afternoon, it has been a dry summer.

The Fen is starting to get really lively at this time of year; you can hear the difference.

While the Fen is relatively quiet at this time of year, there is still plenty around.

40 Whooper Swan have been seen up at Rymes Reedbed, sometimes visible from Trundle Mere Lookout, feeding in the fields to the north, near Farcet, in the company of Mute Swan.
