First ever proper walk around Lower Green in Coleshill which is basically the other side of the Cole End bridge to Cole End Nature Reserve, it comprises of large parts of land that has been left to nature for the most part and runs either side of the River Cole, so there are many diverse habitats such as moorland, woodland, marshland and wildflower meadows which are maintained by Environment Agency for wildlife and peoples enjoyment.
Highlights were seeing Skylarks, many of which were singing, juvenile Whitethroat and Grey Heron, observing a hovering Kestrel and seeing the many wildflowers at this location.
Birds seen today were Kestrel, Skylark, Whitethroat, Reed Bunting, Reed Warbler, Blue Tit, Great Tit, Long Tailed Tit, Goldfinch, House Sparrow, Wren, Robin, Blackbird, Woodpigeon, Jackdaw, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Conformant (flying overhead), Swift, House Martin, Swallow, Pied Wagtail, Grey Heron, Moorhen, Mallard as well as the following juveniles, Whitethroat, Grey Heron, Woodpigeon, Carrion Crow and Magpie.
