Babbs Mill Nature Reserve, Kingshurst.



Another trip to Kingshurst today where it was very quiet on the songbird front, birds seen were Kestrel, Buzzard, Jay, Wren, Dunnock, House Sparrow, Starling, Grey Heron, Pied Wagtail, Little Grebe, Great Crested Grebe, Moorhen, Tufted Duck, Cormorant, Mute Swans and the five Cygnets. Apparently the adult Mute Swans with the three young have killed one of the adults of the two young and the other adult has flown away so unfortunately the two Cygnets have been left on their own but hopefully they'll be okay. There is also four resident Cormorants at the lake at the moment, that is until the chavs with sticks, sorry I mean fisherman, shoot them like they have in previous years !
