BURGGESS CROFT.

Half an hour watching the feeders, then a trip to L/Coed, hav'nt been there for a couple of weeks what with coughs , colds and other ailments?. Brian P has already blogged what was there, but again he's managed to give us some good pic's.the pair of Pochard have come out really good considering the distanace that brian was shooting over. and the annoying female Oystercatcher that would stand on its left leg so that we could'nt have a good look at its ring which was on its right.but still a good shot of the pair. the only other item of note was this aftrnoon just after 4.00pm a single Barnacle Goose overyflying the garden in a fairly sedate pace for a goose, heading north towards Oswestry direction.
