Shard End Lake.








 

Lovely visit to Shard End Lake this morning, great little lake this especially if there's not much litter around and I'm glad to say there was very little present there today.

It's always a real pleasure to see juvenile birds and there were sixteen Coot and three Mallard on the lake this morning, also seen were the following nests, Mute Swan (1), Coot (3) and Canada Goose (1).

The House Sparrow population here are certainly thriving as they were active by the adjacent houses as well as the trees and bushes all around the lake, hopefully the place will have plenty of juveniles very soon.

Birds seen today were, House Sparrow, Blue Tit, Great Tit, Blackcap, Greenfinch, Wren, Robin, Blackbird, Woodpigeon, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Pied Wagtail, Mute Swan, Moorhen, Coot, Great Crested Grebe, Tufted Duck, Mallard and Canada Goose.
