There were lots of birds out on the main scrape, including Canada Geese (150+), Greylag Geese (100+) and a flock of 30 Pink-footed Geese flew across from east to west. Also on view were Tufted Duck (45), Coot (60), Blackwits (50+) Teal (450), Shoveler (25), Wigeon (20) a few Moorhen and a male Hen Harrier.
Outside, feeding on a patch of laid seed at the end of the board-walk, were a number of Chaffinch, a Robin and 2 Brambling.
I had a quick look at Parkgate Donkey Stand on the way home and found Mallard (26), Teal (20), Great Crested Grebe (3), Little Grebe (2), Redshank (25), Lapwing (12), Moorhen (2), a Curlew, a Little Egret and a Kestrel.
