Venue: Marton Mere
Date: Saturday 5th January 2019
Weather: Mild, Breezy later
Leader: Graham Thomas
Party Number: 7
A party of 5 met on Lawson Road and walked to the Reserve. Had been told that the Long Eared Owls were not around this year so we walked to the hides. We were joined by two more. It was very mild and that was a change to previous years.
Several Apple Trees had attracted some members of the Thrush famly.
Lots of Birds around and on the water. Had lunch in the Fylde Bird Club Hide after getting the pass for the key.
Ended up in the Feeding station.
Some screens had been erected at the side for viewing from a different angle.
The good day was ended at 14.30
