Babbs Mill Nature Reserve, Solihull.

Nice walk around a sunny Babbs Mill, Yorks Wood a section of the River Cole today where it was nice to hear the constant song of Chiffchaff, Robin and Song Thrush.

Birds seen were Blue Tit, Great Tit, Goldfinch, Chiffchaff, House Sparrow, Robin, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Jay, Song Thrush, Blackbird, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Woodpigeon, Feral Pigeon, 
Cormorant, Mute Swan, Great Crested Grebe, Coot, Tufted Duck, Mallard, Domestic Goose, Canada Goose as well as the following nesting birds, Great Crested Grebe (1), Coot (1) and possibly a Mute Swan on the island, I say possibly because it was hard to see a bird on the nest but there was a Male Mute Swan chasing any bird away from a certain spot on the island.
