After an enjoyable yomp round Sherwood Forest NNR this morning (more on that in another post), I yomped round Collingham Pits tonight. Of greatest note was a tardy drake Goosander on Mons Pool, 4 alpina Dunlin and 2 Ringed Plovers on the Silt Lagoon, and a distant Dunlin on Ferry Lane Lake. In addition, the drake Shoveler on Mons was with a female (suggesting a failed breeding attempt), but all the Teal appear now to have gone, and the first three baby Coots of the year were with their parents on Ferry Lane Lake.
