RSPB Greylake – June 2016

After a lovely time at Ham Wall I headed off to get some dinner and seeing there was still some light left I decided to make a quick stop at RSPB Greylake. There was only one other car in the car park. I thought I wouldn’t be there long as I just wanted to have a look about but as with visiting any nature reserve you are always there longer than you plan!

I headed to the hide.  There was a Mute Swan and it’s Cygnets, I then noticed a bird I at first did not recognise and when I finally figured out that it was a Redshank it began showing beautifully by landing on one of the fence posts near to me.

I moved next door to another hide and immediately saw a Roe Deer walking towards the hide, it had got itself inside the fence and was trying to find its way out. It was lovely to see so close and to watch it make its way back the way it came.

 
My full list of sightings:
Birds: Blue tit, Grey Heron, Mute Swan, Redshank, Reed Bunting
Mammals: Roe Deer
