Cromwell Wander

           Had a wander around Cromwell Bottom NR yesterday
           in the sunshine but not a lot showing which was disappointing,
           Whitethroats and Warblers flying about and a juvenile Heron
           on the weir, one swallow flyover a few LTT'S up on the hill
           and a wren bobbing about, Lagoon had Little Grebe and Mallard
           and the Reeds were buzzing with noise from the Sedge & Reed
           Warbler but only glimpse's of them and Chiff Chaff sounding off
           here and there, but was glad to see a Oystercatcher flypast on the
           river, also 2 geese or swan like birds but too far away to tell what
           were, they were dark birds nearly black but not canada's.
           Butterfly's and Damsel's were showing well.

          Garden had 8 Goldfinch, 4 Greenfinch, 2 Chaffinch, 4 Jackdaw,
          2 Magpies, 2 Collared Dove, 2 Wood Pigeon.
