Bingham's Pond Survey

On Friday (2 November 2012) I paid one of my regular visits to the Pond to undertake a survey of the birds. There were 17 species plus the cayuga/domestic ducks. The usual 5 wildfowl species were present with numbers of Moorhen remaining impressive with at least 23 counted. 

On the gull front there were a minimum of 97 Black-headed Gulls and one solitary Lesser Black-backed Gull.

Other species of interest were 1 Mistle Thrush and 2 Goldfinches.
