Bearded tits can still be seen in the reedbed reaching more than 10 at a time now, and these are still joined by a diminished number Reed bunting. Brambling also continue to feed on the seed crop left of the starting reedbed loop (seen best from the carpark viewing platform) and are even moving into the carpark to feed on seed left out on the posts and rails. From the hide bird numbers haven’t picked up yet, although small numbers of Wigeon, Teal, and Mallard are swimming about in the pool scrape, whilst from the reeds behind Snipe are occasionally frightened up.
