Cliffe Pools

A great day at Cliffe Pools and Northward Hill, with highlights being Bewick's Swan, Goldeneye, Greenshank, Siskin, Redpoll, and many Marsh Harriers.

Although sunny, the wind was from the north east and cold, as it whipped up the water on Flamingo Pool, froth was being blown across the path, looking like soapsuds.

Grey Heron are starting to gather along the ditches at Northward Hill and should soon be on their nests.



Alexanders have been in flower for some weeks now, and I spotted this one with a fly on it - the winter sunshine was bringing out the insects.

Alexander flower with fly!
