Farmoor Reservoir :: 07 April 2013

Fixed the wheel on my mother-in-law's lawnmower and left Charlotte to cut the grass at her mum's house ... does that seem wrong?

Popped down to Farmoor Reservoir in an attempt to see the black redstart and/or the little gull. All to make up for not seeing the crossbills earlier in the day. Same again though, no new sightings to add to my records. However I did see (27): carrion crow, pied wagtail, little grebe, great crested grebe, mallard, tufted duck, black headed gull, cormorant, meadow pipit, coot, robin, gadwall, teal, shoveler, reed bunting, blackbird, starling, moorhen, redwing, goldfinch, canada goose, lapwing, chaffinch, blue tit, great tit, dunnock and woodpigeon.
