Ecceleston Mere - Whitethroat and Black Sedge
Two Whitethroats singing today but still no sign of any Grasshopper Warblers yet this year. Quite a nice display of plants at the moment, there is a really nice stand of Black Sedge in the Eccleston Mere fen in the south west corner, whilst along the stream there is lots of Opposite-leaved Golden Saxifrage, Wood Sorrell and Lesser Celendine. Bluebells are just coming into flower, and the woods will be worth a visit later this week.
