Ravensthorpe, Pitsford and pond

Popped over to Northampton this morning so called in on Ravensthorpe Reservoir where there was no sign of the Bittern, just a redhead Smew and long distant views of the Great White Egret at Pitsford Reservoir. Meanwhile Bob just about coped with the start of the fishing season at the pond and reward with a first winter Iceland Gull which flew in mid-morning. This afternoons sunshine produced 3 Sparrowhawk and 2 Buzzards over the garden.
