An improving day at Dove stone saw the visit of wren, pied wagtail, meadow pipit, goldfinch, stonechat, crow, wood pigeon and kestrel. 3 were seen on the eastern side of Dovestone reservoir and we were treated to one of them with its prey on the wall across from the picnic area at Ashway Gap.
Additional excitement with the sighting of an egret near the sailing club.
