Happy new year. The Long-eared Owl is still on show at the Clarences scrub, and we have Saltholme Guides there daily to show it to visitors. There is also a Green-winged Teal on Saltholme West. It is best seen from Saltholme Hide, looking down the south side of the water body, or in the ditch between the two pools. The 200+ Fieldfares are still here with a few Redwings among them. The hedgerow by the Watchpoint Hide is the best place to catch them. A few visitors have managed to see Bitterns from Haverton over the past few days. Always worth looking out for.
