A trip today to a very windy and dull Edgbaston Reservoir. The water level is only marginally higher than my last visit in mid November, according to a local it's about a metre higher than it was then, which is still a fair volume of water anyway, but also it's still got about twenty metres to go until it reaches it's normal level. The Carrion Crows, Moorhens, Coots (and unusually for Edgbaston Reservoir) plenty of Jackdaws, are thriving on the temporary marsh that's been created. Birds spotted were Goldfinch, Chaffinch, Blue Tit, Great Tit, Long Tailed Tit, Wren, Dunnock, Robin, Starling, Song Thrush, Jackdaw, Pied Wagtail, Great Crested Grebe, Moorhen and Cormorant.
