Hogganfield Park LNR

Despite the poor weather forecast I made a quick visit to Hogganfield Park LNR yesterday( 28th).

In under two hours I managed 35 bird species and lots of evidence of breeding ...

Mute Swan plus 4 cygnets

Young Moorhen

Young Coot

Young Mallard
 
The BioHavens also proved popular with at least six different species using them to rest and/or preen ..........
 
Greylag Geese, Gadwall, Tufted Duck and Pochard
 

Sadly, the rain curtailed my visit but not my enthusiasm for such a wonderful reserve.
